NEW EVENT IN SECOND LIFE : CARMEL ART CHATNIC begins on Thursday october 8, 2020 1PM-2 pm SLT


As an artist, I am always interested in a good chat about artistic stuff (don't get me started on art supplies) And I KNOW my non-artist friends are very patient when I do so. 

So I thought that the better way to have an interesting chat with other artists in Second Life, was to create an event for that. So here it is. 

Every second Thursday of the month, SL artists (photographers, builders, etc..) and RL artists welcome in the lovely Park of the Carmel Art Community, where Martha McFarren has set up a lovely area for us.

For the first edition, we will chat about inspiration. 

Inspired? Come share! 

The chat will be held in text.

CHATNIC 1 : Inspiration!

Image
 On the second Thursday of the month, I host a "Chatnic" at Carmel Art Community, the lovely art community that Martha and Robert McFarren brought to life in Second Life. (Landmark :  Carmel Art Community in Second life  ) So this first Session of the Chatnic (somehow a chat and a picnic in the park) was held on October 8th, 1 PM SLT to 2 PM SLT (that's 22h-23h CET). I tried to pick an inspiring subject for all kinds of artists, and, truly, what could be more inspiring that INSPIRATION ? So my point with this blog post is to offer you glimpses on what happened then, and maybe interest you in joining us for future sessions? Before diving in, I would like to thank Martha and Robert McFarren owners of the McFarren sim, Kisma K. Stepanich-Reidling, visionary artist, Sᴀᴍᴜᴍ (samiraa.adderstein) artist, Bunny (bunnywet) owner of the Pegasus Fine Arts Gallery, Shiloh Emmons, artist, Anouk Lefavre, artist,  and Paul Horner (paulhorner) troublemaker,  for joining me, and special th

Time flies...

Time flies, and I am not posting as much as I would like? I recently saw a blog post of a friend of mine, who I connected with through the excellent SketchBook Skool (really, you should check them out, they're awesome) and i suddenly realised that my last post was in July. Shame, shame, shame on me. So here are a few drawings to try and make it up to my audience (if I have one, if I don't, then it doesn't really matter, does it?) Here goes : A lovely place next to where I live. I got a moment of gouache madness. A day in Mainz... I had fun with that grey toned paper! Having fun with ink... Thanks for your attention, and MAYBE I will post more often...

I've always wanted to sketch that lovely spot...

So yes, I took my folding chair, my wonderful Japanese fountain pens and my watercolors, and i went for it. Of course a few people looked at me funny, sitting there on the sidewalk and obviously doing something, but soon enough, they just ignored me (which suited me perfectly, in that case). Never underestimate the ability of Frenchies to ignore the others! I got the pen sketch first, the owner of the pressoir went next to me, but he was only getting his car that was parked on the "champs de foire" behind me and went in, ignoring me totally), then i took a reference picture, because it was getting late in the afternoon and i was afraid I couldn't get a good color reference if i waited too long. And here we go: Of course the lettering was a bummer, but I breathed evenly, trying to focus on drawing those letters, and forgetting they were letters... and it worked! "Le vieux pressoir means "the old press" and it was used to press apples to make cider
