Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

Odd title I know, not related to the journal entry, I just like the song.

I haven't written in this journal since the summer, I might as well just say what has happened recently. I haven't done a lot of drawing but I have done a fair amount. At the moment I am really interested in The Beatles. They are an incredible band and I adore their music. It is uplifting and so cheerful. I love to hear back stories about each member and when you break down the band into each member, their solo careers were amazing too. Especially George and Paul. I have done about four drawings including The Beatles and will hopefully do portraits of the four in the near future.

There is one thing stopping me though, schoolwork. I am preparing for exams and am covered in coursework. It is ridiculous the amount I am getting, although it is worth it in the end. Passed exams = Good future

That's all folks!

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.

My favourites are probably the Four Quartets and The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock. Yours?

Similar, yes. I like Poe quite a lot as well; The Raven and Dream within a Dream. Also, I meant novels, anything in particular you like?
