The hugely talented @darinster has started selling prints and I simply couldn’t resist grabbing a copy of her beautiful painting of Henry Lascelles in Plucked Eye and Heart. Seriously, the print is stunning. The colours are rich, the paper is perfect and well packaged - I’d definitely recommend buying prints from Darina. Go and check out her art! 

What really surprised me though, was the extra drawing she included as a gift for being her first ever print buyer! I just had to show it to you guys (Darina gave me permission to upload a pic) because it’s seriously beautiful (and a perfect likeness of John Heffernan like wow) and I am overjoyed. Thank you again Darina, I’ll cherish them both forever and can’t wait to get them framed and up on the wall of my new place <3

Sillamäe aesthetic:

It’s 7 am, Monday, you step out of your house. There’s a strange smell. It might be coming from the port or one of the innumerable factories. You hope it’s not an ammonia leak and nothing to do with the radiation those Kohtla-Järve fools say you have. “Sillamäe – a town of fresh sea winds” the motto goes.

You board the bus to your high school in Narva as you feel the ghost of Eevi Paasmäe judging you. A true patriot would have chosen Sillamäe Gümnaasium. But you’ll end up there. They all do.

It’s June now. You are standing in line in Konsum, your eyes down. Suddenly, you realise the grim babushkas have vanished, everybody around you is speaking flawless Estonian. “Tourists from Viljandi”, you tell yourself. But you know it’s not the case. The town has fallen through to yet another parallel universe. The rumours about the radiation are more than correct, but it’s the least of our secrets.

5, 53, 54?

Thank you <3

5. Is there anyone who can always make you smile?

Answered here :)

53. Five things that make me happy.

Answered here :)

54. Something that’s worrying me at the moment.

Trying to find another job in London. The one I have currently isn’t enough for me to move in with the ever patient @cakesandsnouts . The competition in my field is fierce here and it’s quite disheartening receiving nothing but ‘sorry you’ve been unsuccessful’ emails. 

Pick some numbers ask meme!
