Wanderers

Silent Friends

In the fog I walked and met them all.

Cake Hungry Necklace

I felt inspired to draw my first comic story and here it is :-) I wanted a short story which I can show on one single page. It was interesting to limit my fantasy like this because in my mind I could tell more about this situation... but ok, only one page can also be enough to show the Cake Hungry Necklace. I hope to find time to color it, but don't know when... Shop is coming soon, a lot of work to do..

Clouds Go Away!!

I miss the summer here with every part of my body and conscious, this is so hard after the long and dark winter to be drowned from the rain in this summer. Anyway, I am searching for other creatures when I walk between the trees and the bushes and yesterday I met some. It seems that the rain does not bother everyone... but me.

Seeding Treasures

In The Forest Shadows Watch Your Tail

I love the dark and deep woods. There is so much life in the shadows to find. I feel inspired to search for more...

Hide and Seek

Today I was walking tired through the park, hearing lots of children shouting. The vacation started and the kids were playing hide and seek all around the trees. On the lawn others played and amused themselves.

I wished I had some enthusiastic friends to play hide and seek too...

Forest Imprints

I am walking the same ways every day and everytime it feels like been there for a first time. I carry all these pictures printed under my skin and I love to watch how they let roots deep in my bones. Everything grows now, I love this time of the year and the small forest creatures hurrying on their ways and even do not notice my presence here.

 

Deep in the green

Some green moments from yesterday after the rain: The drops on the leaves reminded me of liquid silver. Small creatures appeared on the way and a lot of shamrocks. I think it is going to be a great year!

Snow Prayer

Cold, grey and rainy days – the winter has forgotten the snow. Where is the snow? I want snow, he wants snow, we want snow! Please, snow, come to us!

I made this picture to invite the snow offically this year. This period of the year makes me nostalgic to old techniques. It is great to make embroidery on paper. Here are some pictures of an old work if you like...

I Love Happy Ending Stories :-)

It is been a long time from my last post here, I am sorry for the long gap... The summer turns to autmn and everything arond is changed. I was working couple of weeks in Bugaria too and was very happy when I came back to Berlin to find some leaves on the trees left:-))

Thank you very much that you keep checking my blog for news and writing to me!

There were a lot of crazy days and many things are happaning around the Magic Animals. Last week we were about to celebrate because my paper goods came from print. Unfortunatley in the same evening my dog escaped from home. It followed four horroble days and nights in surching the poor Meri which is here since five months only and has fear almost from everything. I am very very thankful to all sweet and genreous people in the quarter who searched with me during these days and could not sleep til Meri was found! Without this help maybe Meri would be still homless. Thank you thank you so much everyone!!!

I made some illustrations for Meri and took some fotos from the places that I suppouse that she was hidding these days. Now everythings around her seems to be fine and I can go back to work.

With the next post I will show you some Mariyas Garden paper goods wich are already available!!

Plants Muk as Soft Toy!!

Раститетелната Мук е голяма приблизително 45 см

Plant Muk`s size is about 45cm

Растителен Мук 

Растителната Мук е животното, което ни носи ярките цветове и аромати на лятото. Харесват й дивите и необитаеми места из планини и гори и с удоволствие би превърнала всяко едно от тях в свой дом. Най-често обаче избира горски полянки или ширнали се полета между планински хълмове. Веднъж намерила своето кътче, Мук го обхожда от край до край и внимателно подбира къде точно да пусне коренчетата си. Тогава Земята започва да й нашепва приказки и да я унася в съня на бъдещото лято. Мук сънува и създава хиляди семенца и луковици. Всяко едно от тях е различно, според това дали е била усмихната или тъжна историята, която е сънувала. Когато времето е променливо и дъждът и бурите се редуват с припек, Мук се вдъхновява и създава ярките багри на цветята.

След като се събуди, тя обикаля местността, разпилява щедро своите дарове и грижовно бди над тях, докато всяко растение покълне и намери своя път към светлината и света.

Така Мук създава полските и горски растения и ги закриля. През зимата завива луковиците с шума и ги скрива под земята. После, подобно на тях, и тя се сгушва надълбоко в корените на някое дърво.

През пролетта от Мук израства малък кичест храст, покрит със синкаво розови цветчета и ярко зелени листа. В края на пролетта тя се измъква от подземното си ложе и се запътва към нови земи и гори, където да твори нови градини. Ако е засадила твърде много луковици през изминалото лято, би могла да остане на същото място и следващия сезон. Растителните Мукове обаче предпочитат да пътуват и да се срещат с нови земи, които да им разказват нови истории.

Когато Растителната Мук открие самотно поле с луковици, положени от друга Мук, тя започва да се грижи за тях като за свои. Растенията израстват, но променят багрите си, за да са в унисон с новата си закрилница.

Ако обичате цветята и каквито и да било растения, имате градина или дори няколко саксии на балкона, поканете Растителната Мук в своя дом. Тя ще се грижи ден и нощ за вашите зеленинки и ще ви научи как и самите вие да го правите. Растителната Мук ни вдъхновява да следваме мечтите си и да разбираме какво ни говорят сънищата.

Plants Muk

Plants Muk is the creature that brings us bright flower colours and the flavours of the summer. Any uninhabited corner could suit her well and give her shelter for a season. Especially she likes grasslands embraced by mountains, lonely forest glades or meadows. When she found the right place she will examine it closer to find a spot where she can strike her roots.

If the ground gets confidence in her, it will whisper her tales to sleep in the dawn. Smiling and crying in her dreams she creates seeds and bulbs for her future garden. The stories she have been told during her sleep affect the essence of the to-be-grown plants. But there are other influences too: Is the weather unsettled during the day, going from rain and storm to bright sunshine, the Plants Muk is inspired for the colours of the blossoms to-be. When she wakes up in the evening, she scours the clearing for the right spot to plant her dreams output. She will examine the seeds till they show sprouts.

The Plants Muk creates plants on the forest glades and cares for them. In the late fall she wraps up carefully the bulbs and buries them safely. When her work is done she hibernates deep among the roots of a tree. In the spring a small bush grows from her covered with blue and rose blossoms and light green leaves. She wakes up at the end of spring and leaves her chthonic bed to wander to new places and to grow there new gardens. But if there still are a lot of bulbs in the ground from the last season she may stay. Although it is very unlikely because she is eager to hear new stories on/from new places. If the clearing will be visited by another Plants Muk, the new Muk will care for the plants as if they were her own – but flower colours will change.

If you like flowers – or plants in general – and you call your own a garden – some flower pots on the balcony does it too – then invite a Plants Muk. She will care for your plants day and night and you will learn the best to do for your flowers. The Plants Muk will encourage you to follow your dreams and to understand the tongue of your swevens.
