The possibilities within Second Life are no short of seductive, especially for creatives. It is a chance to take what is started in real life to a new conclusion.
One of my favorite places in the RL United States is New Orleans—specifically the French Quarter. It possesses an ambience that combines aspects of what I love about Europe with what I love about the U.S. Dripping with history and charm, inspiring in rich visual textures and character, and exuding a unique personality, I have wandered the streets there for hours and hours. I visit whenever I have the opportunity and always fall in love again—enjoying the music, the small gallery art, the antiques, and the food.
Hanging three small paintings on the fence mirrors how artists show in real New Orleans.
Other than the food, Kingfisher Island in Second Life captures everything else!! And something in addition: the opportunity for me to show my work there! Nez Darkfury has used his considerable talents to capture what is so lovable about the jewel of New Orleans. He has re-created the charm of the street artists, showing his growing collection of virtual artists. He and partner Maryrosella invited me to have a show there, so I have placed three of my smaller paintings that can fit on the fence and six drawings with two more paintings inside the adjacent building.
Drawing show in virtual New Orleans, in the French Market Faubourg Marigny.
Please visit and enjoy the show, the ambience of the swampy SIM, and especially don’t miss the great DJ’s and live music at Kingfish Blues Tavern!
Kingfish Blues Tavern in Second Life is fantastic for enjoying great tunes.
