Anime and fantasy style artwork and illustrations influenced by eastern design concepts and principles. Ian has shown his RL art on prim for over 12 years in second life. He has had galleries and shows at most major art sims and events and has been a virtual curator himself, showing 4 SL artists a month. Just last year he had a RL exhibition at a local gallery which went well and is hoping to display at comicons next. He is currently working on a fantasy board game, created from scratch. Illustrating all board pieces, cards and character art. The real challenge will be making 3D printed models for characters and monsters. 3D design is a new challenge but one which will also be shown in second life in a year or so. Ian is looking for a benefactor to allow him...

I know June is only one day shorter than most other months but it seems to be flying by and I find myself facing the deadline for writing next month's newsletter.  Wow.  There is news to report.  Lots of news.  Let's start with Babble Journal of Art and Literature.   The Journal is being compiled inworld and is available for all to see and read as it grows.  It includes works by metaverse authors, poets and artists.  You can find copies of the journal in progress at the offices of Babble Publishing and in Babble Café and Books in Kitely.  Stop by anytime to read what's new.  We add to the journal weekly.  grid.kitely.com:8002:Babble Arts Center The cast for Mothers' Days , which will be the first production offered at The Babble Box Theater in October, has been mostly selected.  We still seek one actor, male, for a very minor role and a narrator (male or female).  If you are interested or know someone who...
