Give Peace A Chance

Thu Nov 19, 2009, 3:48 PM
I may have already said this, but I really admire John Lennon. His music, his way of life, just about everything. His songs really speak to you and the lyrics are amazing. He did everything to help his causes and this just shows what a strong character he was.

I would have loved to go in one of his rallies, or the 'Bed In'. I don't think people understand the world enough, I certainly don't. His visions seem clear to me though and he has my full support.

Just to add to my little dazed period, I just want to thank anyone that has looked, favorited or commented on my drawings. Your appreciation is really nice to see and definitely welcome. Peace.

  • Listening to: Instant Karma - John Lennon
  • Reading: Journey's End - R.C Sheriff

My names Laurie Coultas and I have liked art my whole life. I have also been an avid artist for the same. I guess I got it from my Dad who is an artist.
I draw manga and anime from comics, games and the like. However nowadays, I mainly draw portraits of famous people and I have done a few of my family members.
As well as drawing I read a lot, especially poetry and some novels. I like a number of poets such as: Poe, Browning, Eliot, Byron, Tennyson and Swinburne etc.

No problem :)
My favourites are probably the Four Quartets and The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock. Yours?
