After having fun looking at Madcow's fun creations, Lunar stopped by to see the progress of my little mainland plot as Madcow gave me one of his sculptures--"Rise of the Sandwich"--for it. I am working on adding more art and soon I'll truly open it to the public.
And turned to look up at our beautiful Tower and sighed, knowing that it had to come down...
And come down it did! Kheph and I hit the "trigger" and pieces went flying everywhere! Crap Mariner filmed it and Madcow--as carrotdino--came to watch...
We even convinced Madcow to demolish his as well, and creature pieces fell from the sky...
...And onto the psychedelia of the grounds below. What once was is now no more, but it was a great run while it lasted.
"Two of Cups"...
"3 of Cups"...
"The Sun"...
Here I am wearing Madcow's "Solar Dragon" in front of the "Hanged Man". Lunar (how appropriate) noted the moon phase theme and told me that in Japan, the word for month means "completion". He wishes to come here again on the last day of this exhibit since we were here on the first. I think that I can manage that.
Kheph is the creator of the Lovecraft god-monsters at October Country and invited me to a surprise birthday party thrown for Taliesin Morgath. Of course we showed up as the Deep One and me, as a Mi-Go. Another partygoer came as an Elder Thing. Seeing us dance was pure comedy. Only inworld...
I ended the evening with Lunar, talking at the SL Botanical Gardens. That's a quiet place I hadn't been to in a long time...
It being Friday, I was invited to a shabbat candle lighting ceremony over at my build neighbor Jieux Shepherd's, led by Beth Odets. I had never been to one before. Thank you for including me Jieux!
Over at the Tower, SL celeb fashion designer Callie Cline stopped by to tell me how much she liked it and we shot the breeze talking for a while...
Phin sat in the scales and got judged. It ain't lookin' good for him...
Later, Lunar and I danced on the wall--or is it a floor--of Darkle Sands' "Labyrinth" build...
Madcow Cosmos and I were both excited and had fun watching people going by. Remember Madcow, the HUD is the navigation-challenged's friend!
My build with Kheph, the "Tower of Industrial Judgement", is inspired by the "Earth" central panel of the triptych. My concept was that of a "aethereal steampunk tower" and we thought of man, technology, and the Tower of Babel. Kheph and I ran with that, making it a truly collaborative build, both of us adding onto it and surprising each other. Madcow asked me my fave part of it. I love building the fishie, the scales, and oddly enough...these walkways and platforms that I think give it a certain delicacy...
Fellow artist and Gardener Eshi Otawara came over and ended up trying out the swinging wrecking ball. Her dress has this unbelievably beautiful texture...
But I am already finding that a crowd favorite is high in the sky...my flying fishie, based upon the painting and my late fighting fish Magic. Please come and visit the Festival! You will not be disappointed!
I also got a notice about a Madcow Cosmos exhibit at the AngelGate Gallery in Pinta. I thought I'd go because Madcow is one of my favorite SL artists. His sculptures are these amazing, epic pieces that you have to see to believe. This one is entitled "Ironheart"
"Cancer's Revenge"
"Hermit Chariot"
...and "BigSmall Battle". Go see it now as the exhibit will be ending soon!
