Someone asked me to make a reproduction of a sculpture depicting a young lady who seems to have rubber legs and is able to put herself in the strangest poses. I sure hope the real life model did not have to sit in this position until the bronze was finished. Anyway, since I did not have pictures of the front and the back side of the lady, I had to figure out her pose myself. So I put myself on the floor and started to twist my legs and feet. And had a bit of trouble standing up, I have to confess…

Soror Nishi showed me her latest creation … a piece of art! The slightest glance at it drags you back into the sixties. These psychedellic mushrooms look so good from every angle that I had to stop myself from taking too many photo’s.

Strange scene to be seen at Brooklyn Is Watching: Kat2 Kit is putting Ling Ling in scene for the International Panda Rescue Fund. Ling Ling, Japan’s oldest giant panda, died recently in a zoo in Tokyo but keeps on living in Second Life in the sculpture of Cheen Pintey.
As the photo’s will show you, Kit2 Kat seems to be a panda him (her?)self …

Indeed, dear readers, I too tried to make the Garden a bit more hellish than it already was in the underworld part. I thought it would be a good idea to depict how fast and slippery the way to hell can be, so I made something that looks at first like an aquatic paradise. Yes, please, do step on the slide, it is free, and at the end a free barbecue awaits you!
Hope to see you there ….

The Garden of NPIRL Delights is officially open! More info is to be found here http://npirl.blogspot.com/ where I just read that Light Waves participated as well. I spent two weeks in the Garden, building on -with good intentions- the “Path to Hell”, but now at last I can change my builder’s hat into a blogger’s one, showing you some photo’s I took earlier on. Of course I cannot show every single build in the garden – there is simply too much to see and you just have to go over there and look for yourself- so I shall act in a very nepotistic way and show you the builds of my friends and idols. Yes, dear readers, inhabitants of second life are in fact as subjective and unfair as common real world people!

Today I finished the last sculpture for Alexandar Vargas. Indeed, Gaia and Ishtar were made as exclusive commission works for this art collector, and so are Persephone and Aphrodite. Since they were birthday presents annex surprises for his partner, this had to remain a secret until today. Now that the presents are given and the ladies have found a new home in Welsh Cove, you -dear reader- can go and admire them there and only there: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Welsh%20Cove/135/186/23
