See You in September

SL12B

I surely don’t want to miss all of SL12B and am enjoying as much of it as I can. One of my favorite exhibits is 10 Truths by Livio Korobase. I seem to recall really liking his exhibit last year too. Like last year I’ve come across information that I want to look into further although I have no idea how I’ll find time to do so.

For the next twelve weeks or so I’ll be taking next steps to heal my health issues which I’m hopeful and cautiously excited about. The meal plans are labor intensive and how I’ll respond is an unknown. I’m having a bit of a histamine response this week.This last round of LEA is coming to a close. For the past five months I’ve been intensely involved with LEA’s Medici University, having a studio there and participating in drawing, virtual tai chi, photography, writing, machinima, some prim building, virtual road trips and collaborating/hanging out with others. I’ve met a lot of fascinating people, some of whom I hope to remain friends with. I created a separate blog for the experience which has 166 posts at this point!So I really need a break. I’m not sure I’ll be content to blog quite the same as I have been. When I began I wasn’t able to find many of the kind of blogs I wanted to read, but there are more of them out there now. I like reading them and then simply enjoying my time in world.I teleported in to Fuschia Nightfire’s SL12B exhibit and almost landed on her.The above photo includes Bryn Oh. We were both enjoying the rain at the Asphyxiation Point exhibit. I looked at the role play information and it sounds really good. But virtual role play has been heartbreaking for me so I think I’ll stick to more personal creativity.

See you in September.

During my mainland travels I came across this pleasant little gallery in a breezy spot in Falkor. Roadside Xirana’s Art Gallery has two floors of art in various mediums. There are two kiosks with information about the artist as well as website and contact information. Some of the different mediums are oil, watercolor, acrylic, ink, charcoal and pastel. The pieces can be purchased and most are available in RL.You may have heard of the artist’s Portraits For Peace.  A WordPress blog is here.The informational notecard also gives a landmark to Xirana’s Art Studio, shown above, where everyone is welcome.  There’s a gift of a 1 LI art cushion available.After checking the studio out I went back to the gallery, had watermelon and worked on this post.

You’re welcome to stroll around the rest of the campus as well. Or ride the “Neko Rail” shuttle.  There’s been a lot of collaboration and creativity happening here the last few months. Photography, drawing, creative writing, machinima, 3D sculptures and builds, performance art, field trips, philosophy discussions, events and the sharing of knowledge, techniques and fun. The individual studios and installations are ever changing.
