About me

Gender Male
Location Avalon, United Kingdom
Introduction Celestial Elf, a machinima film maker focusing on the Elven and the Ancient Ways. Celestial, because this denotes the heavens, the freedom of the skies and the beyond. Elf, because of my affinity with the ancient origins of the term, describing semi-divine beings endowed with magical powers which they use for the benefit of mankind. My interest is in Re-Visioning the Ancient stories in modern life, to assist people in visualizing and thereby actualizing more positive, life based and nature linked ways to deal with life, relationships and with the sacred world all around us. I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge, that myth is more potent than history. I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts, that hope always triumphs over experience And I believe that love is stronger than death, that laughter is the only cure for grief. Bright Blessings elf ~
