The Gatekeeper (available)

An Earless Monk and his Unicorn are begging a giant bear to join their fellowship for an adventure.

The Order of Earless Monks is created as a result of the earless children epidemics caused by vaccination. The Order helps the children to perfect their telepathic skills so that they can compensate for their lack of hearing. Thus they learn to communicate completely in a way of mind and to get information directly from the Primary source.

When they excel at their skills and reach high level, Earless Monks are sent on a mission to travel the world and spread the knowledge among other people affected by the epidemics.

Missionaries have a Unicorn for a companion and fellow. These Unicorns are earless, too. They use their horn as an antenna for receiving instructions from the Order of the Earless Monks. Should any aims and priorities updates occur, or should his companion divert form the mission,the Unicorn spurs him with the horn to remind him and to refresh the information stream.

This illustration shows the Earless Monk Opa Kolyo and his Unicorn Thadeas in front of the gate kept by the friendly giant bear Braden. Beyond the gate are the realms of the Gloomy Vaccinator where he experiments on human and animal babies before launching his vaccines.

Opa Kolyo and Thadeas are trying to convince Braden to let them in and to accompany them through the lands of the Vaccinator so that they can remain unharmed from the many stalking dangers beyond the gates.

*The author does not deny the advantages and needs of vaccinations in general. Rather, she addresses real cases of mass autism caused by use of defective vaccines.
However, I can assure you mistakes were NOT the case with the Gloomy Vaccinator! His evil plot to world domination was involving intentional development of biological weapons in the form of vaccines.

Unexpected Guests — Gandalf the Grey (available)

A scene from “A Hobbit or There and Back Again” by J. R.R. Tolkien.

The wizard Gandalf is entering the home of the hobbit Bilbo who is a distinguished representative of the Baggins family.

For those of you who are not familiar with the races in Middle Earth, hobbits are also known as Halflings, they are about the height of human children, and they inhabit underground houses, called smials.

For this reason Gandalf needs to bend down in order to enter the Hobbit’s hole.

Archangel Michael and the Dragon (available)

The image depicts Archangel Michael armed with a sword in a virtual dragon fight training.

The fire breathing dragon is nothing but a ultra realistic interactive hologram designed to perfect the sword fighting skills of the Angels’ and Archangels’ armies. This is one of the many methods for physical tempering and original fitness workouts.

Here is illustrated the basic level of the workout, normally used as a warm-up. Upper levels include fire and brimstone, boiling tar, increasing the number of heads through regeneration of chopped off heads in a geometric progression (the degree of progression can be regulated), wings of the dragon, as well as different constant and dynamic hologram sizes.

One can also set up the simulation environment. Here Archangel Michael has chosen the Dragon’s Lair.

To Victory! (available)

The picture shows a young warrior Horsetauress leading First Horsetaur’s battalion into battle against the Centaurs.

Horsetaurs are the same as Centaurs, just with less racial complexes. They do not mind calling themselves by the obvious — namely, that they are half-horses, and they are proud of it.

Centaurs are overall much more touchy, quarrelsome and pretentious. That is why they invent what to nibble about.

The above-mentioned Centaur-Horsetaurs wars were regularly started by Centaurs’ initiative because according to Centaurs, Horsetaurs were traitors. Horsetaurs would often withstand and prevail to victory but at a certain point they had enough of it and sailed beyond the Grey Seas where they lived in harmony with the Elves*.

Centaurs remained in the world of Humans and were subsequently exterminated to the last one.

A notorious example of Centaur abuse is Hercules’s tutor — Chiron the Centaur, smashed hard with his guitar on the head by Hercules after Chiron’s remark about the hero’s poor musical talents.

Some rumours have it that in the midst of the Tilliley forests Centaurs still live but they are so terrified by the human kind that they aim to avoid contacts at all costs.

One Million by Paco Rabanne (sold out)

You might have heard of one of the most emblematic perfumes by the famous designer Paco Rabanne — 1 Million. You might be surprised that the inspiration for this scent came from the designer’s encounter with whirling dervishes.

He once had a fashion show in Turkey where he was invited to the house of a whirling dervish. As a man of manners with a feeling for fashion, Paco brought one of his spring collection hats as a present. Mehmed (this was the dervish’s name) was so delighted that he instantly tossed away the traditional dervish hat and put the Paco Rabanne hat instead. He started whirling with enthusiasm so vigorously that he managed one million spins in just 11 minutes.

Here, at a very high speed, is captured the frame of Mehmed making his phenomenal 1 millionth spin.

Paco Rabanne was extremely impressed and he created his perfume with the allusion of ladies smelling the scent would also make them whirl with enthusiasm around the gentleman wearing it.

After the perfume development, Paco Rabanne sent a complimentary bottle to his friend Mehmed who got so addicted to it that he ordered a whole cardboard box. As a result he started using the perfume as doping to attain his stunning results which made him famous in all of Turkey.

However, in one competition Mehmed’s secret was revealed and he was excluded from the Whirling dervishes community, after being taken away all of his perfume alongside his right to practice.

But as it often happens in life, some of the most unfortunate events put us on the road to greatest success… Heartbroken, Mehmed called in tears Paco Rabanne and he shared of his pain.

The compassionate designer could not just dismiss the sorrow of the young man. Mehmed was appointed as a quality control expert for Paco Rabanne’s 1 Million perfume factories and thus his glorious career began.

Since Mehmed is already a man of age and he needs to take it easy, today the quality of each and every bottle of perfume is confirmed by having the ex-dervish smell it and aim for making one million spins in 33 minutes maximum.

A Jump into Fashion (available)

Meet Mister Smee! It is likely you would be impressed by the unusual long tail and punk hairstyle of this bunny.

In fact, the explanation is quite simple. Mister Smee is merely conscious for fashion tendencies and he is wearing hair extensions which are commonly used among young ladies.

Since fashion and tendencies regarding a certain colour change too often , Mister Smee has strategically taken the move of putting all colours of the rainbow, instead of wondering which particular shade to choose.

If someone remarks that white colour is the fashionable one, the bunny would underline his own white colour and then he would point out additive colour mixing of spectral colours resulting exactly in white. Should someone criticize him it is black which is fashionable, Mister Smee is ready to answer with the models of subtractive colour mixing.

Here Mister Smee is particularly happy and is jumping joyfully like an exuberant fraction on his visit to Madrid. The reason for his excitement is that while touring around the city, he bumped into the Madrid Pride parade which is not only one of the greatest fiestas of the season, but also everyone is carrying around rainbow-coloured flags and nobody is questioning his preferred choice of style.

*Mister Smee — the name of Captain Hook’s right hand man in Peter Pan.
*Additive mixing — occurs in mixing light rays. White colour is obtained after mixing all spectral colours.
*An exuberant fraction — a phrase used by the notorious Avram Ronkov — professor in Mathematics at the Technical University of Sofia.
*Subtractive mixing — occurs in mixing pigments (dye/ paint). After mixing equal amounts of all main colours, a dark muddy colour is obtained. Black is the ideal case.
*Madrid Pride — a LGBT parade in Madrid which takes days in summer. The international LGBT flag is in rainbow colours.

The Comrade Napoleon is Always Right! (available)

Here is depicted the Comrade Napoleon (the main pig in “The Animal Farm” by George Orwell) in one of many scenes which are NOT described in the book.

The gossip has it the depicted scene is taking place after a booze-up in which the Comrade Napoleon got drunk as a pig, he got sick and for this reason he went to vomit in the toilet where he flopped down on the floor since he was unable to stand onto his feet.

I can assure you these are all vile defamations. In reality the picture shows the Comrade Napoleon during an industrial espionage at Mister Pilkington’s estate.

The Comrade Napoleon is seated on the floor of the loo, enjoying the aroma coming out of the toilet bowl. He intends to introduce innovations of the kind in the Farm where this appliance is to be used as an air-freshener in the personal quarters of the Comrade Napoleon in the residence which once belonged to the people’s enemy Jones the Farmer.

Birds of Feather (available)

This eccentric lady is Camilla Barbossa — a fashion designer and a top photo model from Rio. She is a far descendant to Yzma from Disney’s The Emperor’s New Groove and a second grand niece to Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmatians. By her side you can see her source of inspiration for a number of her designs — a pet toucan adopted by her still as a baby.

Similarly to her renowned predecessors, Camilla also feels attracted to fashion. However, unlike her famous grandaunt Cruella (who is addicted to furs), she is addicted to bird feathers.

Here Camilla Barbossa is showcasing her new dress with extravagant detailing imitating a magnificent bird’s tail.

Camilla is also a devoted believer a perfect body needs to be as light as a feather. She has acquired her outstanding shape thanks to a revolutionary 90-day diet based entirely on water and photosynthesis as sources of nutrition. As a food supplement, she intakes 200 ml (1 cup) of vinegar with each meal. Vinegar acid eats into bone structure and thus facilitates for even more effective weight loss by reducing bone density.

Camilla’s disdainful and self-confident glance is aimed towards an obese 54-kilo (119 lbs) 174-cm (5'8") model known by the name of Alessandra Ambrosio (unknowingly why chosen for a Victoria’s Secret model).

* Alessandra Ambrosio — an elite photo model, a favourite of fashion giant Victoria’s Secret.
