In 2014 I started working on a design for our #BritArmyAndFriends reunion at #SpaceFestVI
www.spacefest.info/VI/Over.html
Here is the collection of my brainstorming and the design process:

And additionally some background information:
My latest design features the #NebraSkydisk - one of the most beautiful, astronomical artefacts ever found - until today.
This is the oldest-known image of our cosmos so far, with an estimated age of 3600 years (!!!), the earliest known diagram of the heavens, which makes it one or may be THE most important archaeological discovery of the twenty-first century.
It was discovered on July 4th 1999 near the city of Nebra in Germany and since then fascinates not only the experts.

I have to admit that I fell in love with this beauty as soon as I heard about it several years ago.
And I always wanted to paint it one day.
So what better match could there be than combining this masterpiece, created by stargazers several thousand years ago, who loved observing (and already started understanding) our night sky,
with #SpaceFestVI, which will bring people together again, who come from all around the world to share their love of space and our beautiful blue marble … ?!

As my design project is an artistic realization for a private travel group, I was kindly given permission to integrate the #NebraSkydisk in my artwork.
Hence I have to emphasize that my artwork may ONLY be shared as per following license:

I herewith explicitly send my thanks to the
STATE OFFICE FOR HERITAGE MANAGEMENT AND ARCHAEOLOGY
- THE STATE MUSEUM OF PREHISTORY IN HALLE / GERMANY -
and I will - as requested - gladly send pictures of my design as well as photos of #SpaceFestVI to the Museum for its collection/exhibition.
It is my pleasure to share the #NebraSkydisk far beyond the borders of Germany - especially during an event which only can take place, because some people started documenting their night-sky-observations thousands of years ago.

#OnceUponATime
One year ago, in April 2013 I was looking forward to an amazing event.
A group of #SpaceTweeps was planning to meet in Tucson / Arizona for #SpaceFestV ( www.spacefest.info/V/Astro.html )
Some of us had met each other in person earlier, some on Facebook several months in advance in a group called the #BritArmyAtSpacefest and some #HonoraryMembers joined our group at #SpaceFest itself.
This event turned out even better than I (and I guess many of us) ever could have imagined!
Meeting like-minded people with a great diversity of backgrounds and professions from literally all over the world in the middle of Arizona and sharing with them at least 4 days, while being amongst some of the most remarkable #SpaceLegends #MoonWalkers #MeteoriteMen #AsteroidHunters #Scientists and other #SPACEHOLIX was unforgettable.

Since that time our group is in regular contact (mostly via social media) and as we didn't want to wait a whole year for #SpaceFestVI , we got together again in November 2013 to share another great event:
We enjoyed our #ItIsStonegengeReunionOClock where our group of about 20 people had the pleasure to getting exclusive access in a private tour to the inner circle of the stones during sunset.
Surrounded by many other highlights and #MiniTweetups in UK this was a brilliant weekend.

Since then we are looking forward to our next reunion at #SpaceFestVI which will take place in Pasadena / California in May 2014 ( www.spacefest.info/VI/Astros.html )
What I had started in 2013 after getting back to painting after a very long time,
became kind of a tradition in the meantime:
Inspired by several #Space- and #ScienceTweetups I painted logos for every event I attended
and got them printed on badges for all participants and also some on t-shirts etc.
And 2013 has been quite a ride :-)

Vostok 1, was launched at 6:07 am GMT April 12, 1961 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, located in the desert steppes of Kazakhstan. Gagarin’s 108 minute flight took him around the Earth for one orbit. This historic spaceflight made Gagarin an international hero.
Como parte del programa de exposiciones temporales del Museo de Minería del Estado de México, que administra el Instituto Mexiquense de Cultura en el municipio de El Oro, José Luis Monroy presentó la muestra titulada “Atisbos en la historia de El Oro. La prensa escrita, 1906-1925”, que agrupa una serie de documentos relacionados con las publicaciones “Germinal” y “El Gato”; éste último, el único ejemplar que se conserva en nuestros días. En la muestra, es posible apreciar el tipo de lenguaje utilizado en las notas, reportajes y anuncios publicitarios de la época, que dan muestra del ambiente que se vivía en esta ciudad durante la última bonanza minera, en las primeras décadas del siglo XIX.
