Art Walk post 9: Tomais Ashdene, Dizzy Sparrow, Lingsais Airy

Our famous group of Raglan Shire Clockhouse raccoons are guarding the artworks of Tomais Ashdene at Art Walk. His beautiful Second Life photography has really enthralled people ever since he started. He is one of the Galleria Kakku featured artists.

Dizzy Sparrow has her lovely works by her store Doolally.

And one more pick from the Clockhouse: Lingsais Airy. He is the owner of Mad Hats at Tiny Outpost and landscaped a really cool enchanted forest there, as well, which would be great for photos.

Art Walk post 8: Maymay Matova, Miss Longtail, Izo Ryba, Pieni

Here are some works I found at the Barrel House for Art Walk.

Maymay's art is famous among tinies and beginning to become so among the SL art scene in general. Her happy drawings of little critters, nature and farm life make people want to fill their houses with them. I know this for a fact, as I did it at mine, and have seen several people do it. Some of her works are by her store.

She also has a spot in the hedge maze below, by a big cactus with pink flowers. Make sure to pick up her art in some real life products as well.

I sneaked in and put a few works next to hers in the Barrel House. The purple cat is a donation item to help Bri become the great teacher she is destined to be.

Miss Longtail is a great visual artist, as well as a Live Singer. She is also a popular dinkie designer. I love her unique drawing style and she has great taste in everything from how to decorate her studio to using her art in real life products. Her art is close to the bridge to Windmill house.

Last but not least, Izo Ryba did some really fun portraits of her tiny friends. She is a well known talented designer of tiny items, especially those of Japanese nature.

Second post about Art Walk: Kimly Crystal, Kayly Iali, Etherea Parrott, RedGoddess

(Art Walk 2016 post 1 here).

I have to start my second post about Art Walk with a personal note. I absolutely adore the work Kimly Crystal did. These images are full of color, depth and imagination. And I am not just saying that because she is my SL sister and will tickle my footpaws. Neither do I say it just because she used me as a model. I did love getting my fancy art gallery owner mustache in the close up. Her art is by the Theatre doorway on left.

Kayly Iali's works are to the right of the theatre door, towards the back, on the exterior wall. Her watercolors and calligraphy are excellent. As you know she is a trained artist, showcasing in real life as well as in SL, and owns Gallery 24 at Avalon. I wrote a profile on her some time ago, as she is one of the artists of Galleria Kakku. I love her ability to show how special every day things and moments can be.

I always knew Etheria Parrott was a multitalented person. She was an important part of the team who built the new Raglan Shire sim and is well known for creating the dinkies. But I had not realised how amazing she is as a painter. Her works are between Kimly's and Kayly's on two levels.

I happened to see RedGoddess setting up her art, and we had a nice chat. We had met before at one of the readings at her gallery. Make sure to check out her works on one of the upper platforms. Also visit Gallery Rouge and SpeakEasy, where they have open mic poetry and story readings every Sunday at 11am SLT.

Do you know how to get around in Raglan Shire? Apart from the popular Art Walk feature, the caterpillar, you can use the slingshot. Just sit on it and click your destination in the menu that pops up. There are slingshots everywhere on the sim.

You can of course use the tour acorn as well, if it stops by near you.
