—————–

Later edit:

Sumi-e painting

May 04th, 2008 | Category: art, design, fun

If you’re a chinese-japanese art fan or just a Photoshop-effects regular user, you might have heard of Sumi-e. If not, greater should be your curiosity to what I am about to show you.

Based on ink and wash painting, Sumi-e, or shui-mo hua as it is named in Chinese, its place of birth, is one of the most relaxing brush painting techniques, whether you engage in the painting act itself or just watch the splendour of the outcome of every brush move on the blessed sheet of paper.

adagio for strings

March 19th, 2008 | Category: art, fun

is the best way for me to start any morning.

what was once the best saddest classical song and the highest selling piece on iTunes, now, equiped with beat and electrical sounds, it brings power, strength, vitality and joy of living. Watch Dj Tiesto’s cover of Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings”:

iasi at night white margin

Buna ziua tuturor! Acest post este asa cum si observati in lb romana, datorita

today is like no other day… and on this special day I’m walking, I’m talking but most of all, I’m typing…
