Description Aubrey Beardsley, my muse. Died at age 25 of tuberculosis.

"Suddenly he sank back in his chair and blood poured from his mouth. 'This field of poppies is the field you have sown,' he cried out to no one in particular; 'it is like an orchestra in which the players take no notice of their conductor. Am I raving?' " -- Beardsley: A Biography by Stanley Weintraub

Beautiful, and I have yet to read that biography, but I'm more than a little obsessed with this man.

Core's going alright so far. We've got a new instructor, also named James, who looks more like a George or a Robert. Our contract right now is more or less to do whatever we want, so that's nice, I guess.

Word! Did someone get replaced? But that's cool that you have so much freedom!

Yeah, Georgia's focusing on her Printmaking classes this semester. James Huckenpahler is her replacement.
