Dom, 25, XVX.

I run a vegan lifestyle/record store called V Revolution in Manchester, UK with my housemate Chris. I occasionally put out tapes for bands under the name Suburban Miasma, and I sing in a band called Esoteric Youth.

The Lady with an Ermine (1490) by Leonardo da Vinci
I’m reading Philip Pullman’s The Golden Compass and I was very thrilled to read on Wikipedia that the idea of daemons was inspired by a group of paintings, this being one of them. Daemons are the external representation of the soul in the fictional universe of the His Dark Materials trilogy.

I saw this in real life at the huge Leonardo da Vinci exhibition at the National Gallery.  It is breathtaking.
