Kong Fu: Crazy end of 2015!

Hey Jungle,

first of all:
A healthy and good year 2016 to everyone!


From my personal perspective 2015 ended really crazy.
My girlfriend, my cats and I moved to a new appartment. Several weeks without a proper head for painting miniatures or working as a self employed artist.

 My cats loved the move - Many, many boxes.

Long weeks of preparations for the move, followed by the move itself, followed by a succesful fight to get the chaos of a move in good order. I thought about relaxing after this was done, but then Christmas knocked at the door and then more and more dropped in to make a crazy end of 2015. The end of 2015 truely put a spell on me, it seemed.



Well, but no spell lasts forever. It feels good to have survived all this and the horizon shines some light through the fog. 2016 appeared and with it MV has big plans. That means I do too as I am a very active member of the MV-Team. On January 9th we will have this years first meeting of MV Members in Augsburg (Bene, Peter, Roman, Raffa) to put the magic spell of happy painting on you all through 2016.

Why not make this post as crazy as the end of 2015 actually was.
Impressions, things that influanced my december, inspired me or made me crazy. First the last month of 2015's REEF Calender promised an inspirational month:

Then I saw a tank in my hometown, Augsburg.

I worked on my new table for my home office.

Weirdo cats all through the time of the move.

Sunrise early in the morning from the new flat.

A good friend from Berlin visited during Christmas time.

We battled hard and saw Star Wars.

... and maybe there was even more!

Then hunting Christmas tree - all family at our new flat, more christmas days, recharging batteries, simple new years eve and there we are: 2016. I want to thank all of my friends who helped me through these days of chaos december. Arrigato!

I am looking forward to work my passion through the upcoming year and plans are made, plans are ahead and some are already announced. I am looking forward to see the blog give me a little more structure once more, as 2016 was announced as the year of the painter 2. We will have tutorial voting every Tuesday and the voted article on Thursday/Friday. This will be so cool and I am already prepared with more than a handful of wonderful articles for you .


MV Workshop Roadmap 2016
Also January starts with two painting classes of mine. One MV's Jar's Beginners Class and one MV's Jar's Basing Class in Augsburg, Germany. In February I'll head to Graz, Austria to give my MV's Jar's Advanced Class a reality check. Really looking forward too meet my students there.

I can only recommend to you to stay put to daily blogging in the massive jungle.
You will not regret it.

I have no idea if this post has any weight, it was just written to get these crazy days of my chest and brain. Now it's time to arrive in the new home and spend time there and find the every day routine. The blog will help me with that and I am looking forward to meet/read you there!

Keep on happy painting!
Best Wishes
Roman
