Amazing. That's the only word for it; your writing is phenominal and caught me by the heart, I dropped everything and had to read it all the way through. You're an amazing writer, your style is haunting, the way you described the detail in the painting... Just amazing.

You sell yourself short with that summary. This is spectacular. The way you combine description and fragmented events makes the entire story feel almost alive. I especially love "dainty shattering noise," and the idea that he could feel her painting him. Over the top. Completely astounding. You did one hell of a job.

Wow. You've got skill chica. I like it. It requires intelligent reading, but that's good.

Very disturbing, but I like it. It's very good, with lots of creative description. But I don't get what was so disturbing about the picture. And how did the fire begin? And...he was burned in the fire, right? It's almost like a dream.I love your style, though.

A little bit confusing because I had to read it over twice but wonderful never-the-less.
