Talk! with Marie Presents Annual ArtWalk @RaglanShire in Second Life with Organizer Karmagirl Avro

Great Talk! with Marie Show with special guest Karmagirl Avro, Organizer of the 10th Annual ArtWalk from May 3-31. Residents of Second Life are showing their artwork during the event.  You'll see reproductions of RL artwork (painting, drawing, digital fine art, printmaking), along with SL photography, manipulated photography and sculpture.

Each year, hundreds of artist participants exhibit in spaces over several sims. This year, organizers are expecting a good turnout and will include space in the vast center park of Raglan Shire, in Heron Shire forest, and in other sims in the cluster if needed. The 2D artwork will be displayed along hedgerows around Raglan Shire, and sculpture in designated areas of the forest on Heron Shire.

Adventures of Lola: River by RedGoddess

Here's the latest hotel adventures of Lola. She is in a reflective mood on this one. Hope you like and don't forget I love getting your comments, so leave one:)

There is a river that runs through Lola's neighborhood to the hotel. Many residents treasure it as if it were "La seine" itself.  Lola gazes through the foggy bus windows with sadness as she watches the fishermen, rowers, boaters and ducks on the water,  soaking in nature's beauty. It occurs to her, she has never taken a walk, had a picnic or even rode a ferry to the many islands close by. It's ironic that tourists seem to explore the city more fully than those who live here. 

Gallery Rouge is Launched

Many of you know me as a writer in second life but I'm also a Photographer. After rezzing in SL, my level of creativity went through the roof. I finally found an outlet where I can mesh everything I love and bring people together. I've shared my photography at various galleries, art festivals and special shows in Second Life. I also display my work among a collective at Gallery Rouge, a gathering place for artists, writers and creative spirits to be in their element. We host open mic readings, live music, writing sessions and networking opportunities.
I invite you to visit and discover all the artists' unique creations. If you're an artist in Second Life, I would love for you to become one of the featured artists. IM talkwithmarie in Second Life.
