Like Moths - Its Primal

We are drawn to light. I always have been and continue to be fascinated with light. I search the light in the sculptures I make for the images that draw me in.
What these artists depicted in the series listed below dedicated their whole lives to, we are just tapping the surface of in Second Life. There is so much more to be discovered.
It may not be possible for me to visit these places in real life or see these light shows...but perhaps there is something that can inspire more within me for my work in Second Life.

Sonia Stardust

Kelly Yap Gallery
Sonia Stardust created these fun booths..where my cartoon avie can look human in a cartoon. I bought one and making my own poses because...*pose balls not included* Not sure what the caption reads...doesn't matter, does it? Its all visual for me!
*Excerpt from her bio...."Sonia Stardust (aka Mindy Fisher) grew up in the backwoods of New Hampshire where she took part in activities such as pine needle fort building, beach trash sculpture making, and underground comics publishing." Ha ha...makes me laugh, Sonia! Thank you!

Launching PRIMAGERY

Primagery is a word I coined for something Sachi and I pioneered in Second Life as a means to create 2D art purely in Second Life. Its the closest thing to making paintings in SL as we can get. We build one or more prims and then apply textures to them--exploring volume, transparency, and luminosity-- and then capture it with a snapshot. Uploading the snapshot in its pure form (unaltered) we then have a 2D image which we lay down on a "canvas". Sachi Nozaki (SL name) --Her work is amazing and beautiful. Please come and see what is possible in Second Life in the world of art. Visit our private gallery "The Dark Side of the Moon".
You may be stunned at the experience. Join our Group too! Become an appreciator of Primagery! Hope to See you! Sledge Roffo
