Paul Reeves aka John Graham “Furor Movie”'s Blurbs
About me:
I've worked as an artist/animator in the video games industry for about 15 years, and have moved around a few different companies in that time. I've written a lot of tutorials for video gaming, model making, texturing, animating etc. I'm going to have a good batch of similar tutorials on my own site.
I started getting into acting when I was about 19. I've managed to gradually work my way from local theatre groups to small parts on TV dramas. Playing the part of John Graham in the movie Furor, was my first acting role in a movie.
I've more recently been trying get back into traditional art as well as acting, and I've been doing a lot more oil painting, and have been exhibiting as much as I can. It's slow going trying to earn a living like this, but things are moving steadily forward, and I'm happy which is the most important. More galleries are showing my work, so things are moving, slowly but surely.
If I fail at doing what I'm trying to do, well, at least I can say that I gave myself the opportunity to fail, rather than saying, I just didn't bother trying.
I also have a website selling 3d models that I have made, I'll be gradually adding more to that over time. I want this same site to be a gallery for my paintings as well as my 3d work.
Graphicpod.com is the 3d and traditional art website that I created with Wendy Shepherd.
Now that the trivial and weird hybrid "observances" of Samhain
after the arrival of the Romans, and further trivialization and
weirdness of activities after the arrival of Christianity, that you in
the modern world celebrate has passed.....
here is what Samhain was originally about:
"Samhain" was our word for November. Are you on any personal
threshholds in your life? Step into the experiences--life is about
moving forward. Happy November, my friends.
I see
that even after 2000 years, Romans are still raping children and being
allowed to get away with it....even being celebrated by their friends
for their savagery and paedophilia.
Shame on every hypocritical celebrity and politician trying to exempt
this latest Roman for his crime...these same politicians who decry
child sexual abuse and pornography out of the OTHER side of their lying
mouths.
You know what I did to every Roman who crossed my path after my little girls were raped.
Think hard about the celebrities and politicians you give your money
and trust to. Especially if you have little girls of your
own.
THERE ARE AT LEAST THREE "SCHOLARLY" INTERPRETATIONS OF THE ANCIENT CELTIC CALENDAR
These are the warm celebrations of the Autumnal Equinox, or "The Lights of the Water," where we paid special attention to our nature shrines, made toasts to the trees who are giving us such a beautiful show again at this time of year -- and who give us so much year 'round. We drank libations to the deities and offered what you now call "cornucopias" to them and to those special to us.
May you have reaped plenty from your labours and tended to your spiritual centres in order to weather the coming months in comfort.
THERE ARE AT
LEAST THREE SCHOLARLY INTERPRETATIONS OF THE ANCIENT (PRE-ROMAN,
PRE-CHRISTIAN) CELTIC CALENDAR. LAMMAS FALLS APPROXIMATELY SIX WEEKS AFTER THE SUMMER SOLSTICE AND THE RISE OF SIRIUS
Lammas is the
ancient festival that celebrates the first grain harvest of the year.
It is also known as Lughnasadh, the festival of Lugh, the good-natured
sun god, who has been near us, burning long and bright, but who now
will begin his retreat from us as the daylight hours grow shorter and
we approach the Autumnal Equinox. One of our greatest fire festivals,
Lammas/Lughnasadh included burning wheels of fire sent tumbling down
hills as a metaphor for the sun king's slow departure from
us.
This
month we celebrate the Synoikia with sacrifices and ceremonies to
Athena, Zeus Phratrios (Zeus as a symbol of tribal brotherhood) and
Eirene (Goddess of Peace). The Synoecism is meant to create unity, yet
this begins our season of Warfare, so it most often was ultimately
about taking sides. It was only when this infighting stopped that
Greece achieved greatness. There is much that can be learned from
history, if only people cared to learn it.

Although I thought I
had failed, my rebellion led Rome to institute major changes in how
they treated Britannia, enabling the Celtic ways to survive, although
filtered through Roman and Christian traditions, into your time. This
is what I had fought for: the right of my people to live their lives,
responsible for themselves.
I am aware a number of modern
countries celebrate their independence this month, and I wonder how
many of you today truly cherish what you have, and I wonder to what
lengths would you go to preserve your way of life? Complacency, apathy,
and a lack of a moral center destroy a people from within.
THERE ARE AT LEAST THREE "SCHOLARLY" INTERPRETATIONS OF THE CELTIC CALENDAR
Places
where water meets land are sacred and mystical, as places of transition
from one essential form to another, places where two forms of matter
converge. In addition to this, we add the element of fire to
celebrations on shorelines and riverbanks. This is a powerful time, a
time of strength and resolution, added to further by the Mighty Oak
being the tree associated with this dawning of Summer.
Beautiful Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, rises at this time of
year, after an absence from our skies of some 70-75 days. Sirius is
The Dog Star, the brightest member of the constellation Canis Major
("The Big Dog"), and thus the period after his return has been called
"The Dog Days of Summer." Our ancient Calendar relied on this to mark
our summer's beginning, the Ancient Greeks used it to mark the
beginning of their year, and the Ancient Egyptians predicted the annual
flooding of the Nile based on the return of Sirius. Many African and
European cultures, old and new, have mythology tied to our dear
beautiful, bright brother Sirius.
Skirophorion means "Parasol bearers" and is a festival which
celebrated the fertility of the women and of the soil with various
public and secret rituals for goddesses Demeter and Kore that are
sexual in nature, although the women abstained from sex for the day of
the Skira in order to bring fecundity to the land. The one activity in
which the men performed was a race carrying vines laden with grapes:
the winner would be given the Fivefold Cup, filled with prizes of wine,
honey, cheese, corn, and olive oil.
The
warm weather of the month generally saw many parasols carried by or for
fine ladies who had to be out in the sun, and there was a prayer
offered to the goddesses to prevent the heat of the summer from being
too great.
