I wish all of you a happy, cheerful and (as far as anything negative goes) calm Christmas and wish for all of you that you have the possibility to spend it with family and / or friends.
In case you cannot celebrate along with everyone you would like to celebrate with, remember the beautiful lyrics of Days gone by.
Last year I didn't finish a Hearth's Warming contribution in time for Christmas so when I did finish it in January it was a bit out of time. Maybe this is the time to post it once again for a little Hearth's Warming tale
2017 has been a year of a lot of turmoil on the global scale.
For me personally it included some farewells but also many very bright and beautiful moments. The joy and support (both received and given) of friendships as well as reactions to my work here have been among the very awesome parts of the year.
I'm looking forward to 2018 and hope that it will be a year in which all these positive aspects will dominate for all of you and help coming to terms with the not so bright moments which are always part of life.
Thanks to all of you for the part which you have played in the positve moments of the year
With many greetings and best wishes

Setting out for the PonyCon Holland
I'm about to set out for the PonyCon Holland. Mostly due to Corona it will be the first convention in a very long time and the first time since 2019 to see many fellow bronies again. I am very much looking forward to this and also to offering a my little pony origami workshop tomorrow. Unfortunately my workshop coincides with a voice actor panel of Cathy Weseluck (who voices Spike, Coco Pommel and Mayor Mare) which I would have loved to attend and which I fear many will attend who might otherwise be interested in the origami workshop, but that's the way the cookie crumbles. Funnily enough the town part of Zeist where the convention takes place is called Griffensteyn, which obviously is Dutch for Griffonstone, how much more awesome can it get?
Forms of Fanart panel at the TrotCon this weekend
From Friday (December 4th 2020) to Sunday (December 6th 2020) there will be the Next Saturday (September 19th 2020) there will be the TrotCon Online https://trotcononline.net On Sunday from 6:45am to 8:45am Eastern Time I'm going to contribute (via zoom) with a little panel titled "Forms of Fanart". As you know it is kind of my thing to try out many different types of crafts and I just love learning about many different ways to turn all kinds of materials (e.g. paper, stone, wood, metal etc.) into something ponyish. There are many ways to keep oneself busy and creating something nice to brighten up ones spirit, especially in times when contacts with friends that would do much of the brightening up in regular times need to be limited. I'm going to present many (can't promise all of them depending on the time frame) of these forms of fanart along with helpful tipps for anybrony who would like to try give one or some of them a try. If you have any questions (both before and during the
A little shoutout for an awesome artist's giveaway
Hello, I would like to turn everybody's attention to the giveaway conducted by Themisto97 , celebrating his 200th watcher. He is a great friend and an awesome artist. Themisto creates amazing chalk drawings, awesome laser pyrographies and mindblowingly beautiful acrylights: A giveaway in which you can get a free commission by such a talented artist is something you shouldn't want to miss and participating is pretty much as easy as can be. Here is a link to all the details about his giveaway.
I'll give a panel at the Ponyfest Online 4.0
Next Saturday (September 19th 2020) there will be the fourth Ponyfest Online: https://discord.gg/xJtUGF At 10:30 Eastern Daylight Time I'll give a panel on "Unicorns and other fable Equines". It will be a scientific but entertaining presentation about the development of unicorns and other equine creatures from human mythology through the centuries. We all know and love the ponies of the series, but few of us have examined the role of equine characters in myths and legends predating My Little Pony. I had asked if it was possible for my panel to be set at a time late enough to make it accessible to American bronies as well as bronies from Europe. The staff of the Ponyfest was kind enough to grant that wish :-) If you are interested I would be very happey to see you there.
