Случвало ли ви се е да чувате музика, докато наблюдавате как любим човек крачи по улицата? Специална, приказна музика, която долита само до вашите уши? Случвало ви се е, казвате? Прекрасно усещане, нали?
I have heard
Music coming from your heels,
As you move along the street
Tunes fly out to me.
I have seen
Buttercups bloom in your hair,
Secretly glowing in pairs,
Grinning at strangers' stares.
And the woods in your eyes
Are not on maps,
And the creatures they shelter
Are now my friends...
You are a nature spirit
With a bag of charms and merits.
I was hiding behind the smile I wear,
Yet somehow you found me there -
Cut my slumber in the middle,
Drowning keys and frolic fiddles,
Yes, I can hear
The music you send to my ears -
As you move along the street
Tunes fly out to me...

A late introduction.
Browsing through our blog a couple of days ago, I felt a bit of an introduction was needed. So, as hard as it is to pick out the right words to describe us, I shall try. “Why in English?”, you might ask. Well, no particular reason. English and I have been friends all my life and I guess we just stick together.
The wonderful idea for this blog was entirely Luke’s – a sort of diary, chronicling his many achievements in various fields – from furniture making and interior design to painting and photography. His talents are as diverse as his hobbies are and I am sure you will be thrilled to follow his exciting projects.
I shall be in charge of the blog’s poetry corner. Literature is one of my passions and writing helps me maintain inner harmony. Only trouble is, I don’t have as much time to devote to it anymore, but hopefully having a place like this to share my strings of words will inspire me to write more.
This is what our blog is about – two people with a need to express themselves artistically, sharing with you their zest for life and their love for one another.
We hope you enjoy your visit. Thank you for stopping by!

The Essence
Мъничко поезия в чест на онова, което някои наричат душа, други живот, трети изживяват като необясним миг на въодушевление пред нещо по-висше от тях самите, а аз усещам като вълшебство.
I am fascinated by
The Essence.
I am madly in love with
The Essence.
The Essence is a colour explosion,
It is twitching,
It is burning
In exultation.
The Essence
Resides
Behind layers of make-up,
Of clothes,
Of flesh,
Of errors,
Of words and of looks and intentions.
A grain of Eternity
Sealed underneath.
It hides behind tree bark,
In stems and petals,
In the brick of buildings,
The glow of lanterns,
The spirit of cities.
The Essence purls
With will-power.
It is not
Appearance.
It is not
A blonde,
Nor a brunette.
It needs not shine
With a false blaze.
The Essence
Simply
Is.
And it is starving
And abundant,
And crippled,
And cheating,
And vegan,
And a handyman,
And a teacher,
And absent-minded,
And middle-aged,
And a toddler…
It is a stranger, the Essence,
It is a beggar,
A handshake,
A flash on the lips.
The Essence is my hand.
And my breath.
And it is beyond my hand and my breath.
It is your eyes.
But not their brown.
It is a light squeeze
On the shoulder.
Ethereal,
Translucent,
Melodious.
It flutters
In the Fallen
And in the Soaring,
Ever the same
And ever varying.
It tells you to rush
And to dawdle,
To scream,
Then arrest tongue in silence.
…yet for all its ambivalence,
It is ever right.
It is perfect.
Sublime.
Oh, I am deeply in love,
Madly in lust
With the Essence…

Warhammer modelling and painting
Светът на Warhammer е известен сред почитателите на фентъзито, настолните игри или колекционерите на фигури. Със своите средновековни рицари, футуристични пехотинци и митични същества, пресъздадени от творбите на Толкин и Пратчет, те въвличат в свят на приключения, фантазия, доблест, храброст, изобретателност.Warhammer присъстват много преди Blizzard да създадат първото си издание на Warcraft. Темата за орки срещу хора, описана от Толкин, е пресъздадена първа от Warhammer, или поне аз такава информация имам. Новата поредица Warhammer 4000 пък ни изпраща далеч в бъдещето, където войната продължава, но и с огнестрелни оръжия. Да, интересно е да видиш Огре нарамило огнехвъргачка. Има множество книги, които по-добре от мен ще ви запознаят със света на Warhammer. Разбира се на английски език.
За съжаление този вид хоби не е разпространено у нас. Warhammer се разпространяват от верига магазини Games Workshop и нямат присъствие на пазара в България и по последна информация няма и да имат в скоро време. Единственото място, където българи с Warhammer хоби могат да обменят информация, да показват моделите си или да присъстват на битки е форума на сайта http://blackcitadel.eu/ .
И така, какво е нужно за да започнете с моделирането и оцветяването на фигурките:
• Хоби-ентусиаст х 1 (най-малко);
• Модел/и на Warhammer (пластмасови или метални);
• Бързосъхнещо лепило (нещо като капчица, каноколит...);
• Клещи-резачки;
• Акрилни бои (най-добри за целта са Citadel серията на Warhammer);
• Четки (за предпочитане с мек косъм);
• Черен спрей (мат) или черна боя за основен грунд. (Освен ако не рисувате Гандалф Сивия, а после и Белия - там за основа ще се използва ... хммм ... сиво или бяло ;);
• Търпение и добро зрение.
