My name is Laurie Coultas and I have adored art my whole life. I have also been an avid artist for the same time. I assume I got this love from my Dad who is also an artist.
I mainly draw portraits of famous people, especially musicians and film stars that I like. I have a fondness of anyone from the 60/70s and have a habit of drawing them. However I do draw musicians from this century too.
Music is another big part of my life; I play guitar and sing in a band called The Alamos. I like 60s music mostly such as: The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones etc. I do like modern bands like The Strokes, Kassidy, Vampire Weekend, The Vaccines and Arctic Monkeys.
I read a lot, especially poetry and some novels. I like a number of poets such as: Poe, Browning, Eliot, Byron, Tennyson and Swinburne. My favourite novel is Hopscotch by Julio Cortazar, and I am fond of Spanish novels.
