Changes at Elven Enchantment Musuem and Art Gallery

Since opening our doors on September 1, 2007, Elven Enchantment has gone through some incredible changes. Elven Enchantment hosted its first Exhibition in November 07 showcasing Spiral Silverstar's factal art. Next, Gracie Barbosa kindly consented to exhibit a part of her RL photograph collection, and our current exhibitor is Lexy Wilder.

We also have awesome artiste's whose artwork has been displayed in the Art Gallery for sometime and with each new exhibitor we have exclusive and multi-copy artwork that remains in the Art Gallery. The Art Gallery grew too small so this week a fourth level was raised up, moving the art gallery to the fourth level and the third level remains the exhibition space for artiste whose work are being shown for the month.

The aquarium moved up to the fourth level too as it was too big to remain as a center element on the third level. Additional artwork will be available for purchase in the art gallery choice pictures from the "Beauty in Bondage" will be available for purchase in early to mid-February.

We are gearing up for another artiste, who is a digital painter--Eden Cale. We will be welcoming him to the Elven Enchantment family on the second weekend of February.

There is only one stairwell going up to the gallery level as the curator was trying to save on prims. To access the new level, go to the middle stairwell on the third level and you can walk up to the Art Gallery.

Women of RL/SL Beauty

During the months of January and February we are celebrating Women of Beauty in Second Life and Real Life.

The Garden Level in tradition of Elven Enchantment is filled with SL Women of Beauty the the first set of pictures is of Gorgeous Rosa was taken by PJ Trenton, a SL photographer. There is a black and white series turning this color spread to black and white was inspired by Magdalena Cazalet's remark...Atty that picture looks like a "Film Noir" photograph.

There is a beautiful woman tied up to the Japanese Bondage structure that was on display at Elven Enchantment's opening. The next set of photographs are donated by Elven Enchantment's Patrons Chastitiy DeCuir and Ailenor Laval. This photograph was used on their wedding invitations and so absolutely beautiful that it takes the viewer's breath away.

The "Two Beauty's" has made a reappearance at the Museum as it was out during the opening month of September and the Fairies from Sunrise to Midnight are the final phase in the SL Women of Beauty series.

The Real Life Women of Beauty is reflected on the First Level of the Museum, which has been changed to display the photographic donations of Rhad McMillan, RL/SL Master and Museum Patron in the "Beauty in Bondage" series. The Museum's pick for this series is "Master's Touch."

The Real Life Masters Floor has remained the same, as this floor is only changed out once a year.

The Third Level has new art in the Art Gallery and of course the Lexy Wilder Painting Exhibition is on the West side of this level. These are her real life paintings of her homeland, using oil and acrylic the beautiful landscapes are painted and she provided one sketch as well. The items for purchase are on the northern wall of the third floor. The Museum's pick for this exhibition is "Waterfall." An enchanted forest where this Curator would love to play hide and seek! Thanks Lexy for sharing your fantastic real life artwork with us in Second Life.

Changes at Elven Enchantment Musuem and Art Gallery

Elven Enchantment Museum and Art Gallery is celebrating Women of Beauty in Real Life and Second Life during the months of January and February 2008. That means that these lovely Second Life women will be able to be viewed in the Gardens for two months.

Surprise, the Second Level has been changed out to celebrate Women of Beauty in Real Life though the eyes of a Real Life BDSM Master and Second Life Master Rhad McMillan. Rhad is also a patron of the Museum and has kindly donated the 20 pictures that I have named: "Beauty in Bondage." These stunning pictures reveal that there is true beauty in bondage and submission.

Elven Enchantment is proud to introduce to you a new up and coming digital artiste, Eden Cale and his three huge pictures may be viewed on the First Level. I am very happy to inform you that Mr. Cale will be exhibiting at the Museum during the month of February for our first Digital Art Exhibition.

And last, but definitely, not least is the change of the scripted artwork by our very own Drathon Montague, whose artwork, "Lupine Dreams," "Dallas," and "Tall Ship" have been hung for your viewing pleasure.

Month of the Drow

As the month of December ends, I am taking a moment to thank all the people who participated in the Drow Elf photo shoot: Matron Mother X, Matron Mother Jax, Weapons Master Zaknafien Barbosa, and the Renegade ArchKaine Hax.

This shoot was a very fun photo shoot and the role playing was at a very high and intense level. If you have not seen the Drow Elf layout at the museum, I urge you to do so as its an accurate snapshot into the daily lives of Drow Elves, the vicious creatures that they are and I hope if you have seen it you have enjoyed the depictions of the the fight to the death approved by Lloth herself.

What and who are Drow Elves? They come from the fantastic imagination of R. A. Salvatore and TOR Publishing House, they live in the Under Dark of Menzoberranzan, worship the Goddess of Choas, Lloth and plot to overthrow the House above their own for the glory of Lloth.

Again thank you Matron Mother X, Matron Mother Jax, Weapons Master Zaknafien Barbosa, and the Renegade ArchKaine Hax you all are marvelous!

Gracie Barbosa Photography Exhibition

Elven Enchantment is proud to present Gracie Barbosa's real life photographs in our second Exhibition. Ms. Barbosa takes road trips in the southwest of the USA and takes photographs of the places she visits from the Grand Canyon to Artiste Drive, Salt Flatts of Utah, to Monument Valley.

Ms. Barbosa's photographs are passionate, and do real justice to the landscape she takes pictures of and the viewer is treated to a fantastic view of the southwest of the United States of America. If you have not had the privilege of visiting this part of the US then these photographs are a must see.

This exhibition begins on Monday, December 10 and runs to December 30, 2007. Bring your friends and come and see these fantastic photographs.
