When I was a young kid my father handed me a camera one day and told me how to use it. Within that little metal box, between its glass and rings, I found a meaning, an expression of who I was.
I found I always saw the world in a different way, I could look at something and feel a reaction. Deep down inside of me my soul would ring a tone, whether it be dark or bright, it rang, and I wanted to sing it. But I would look at the person next to me and search their face for the ring I felt, and I didn’t see it. It was in that camera I found the way, a method, a medium to bring my ring to life. So when I looked at the faces of people who saw my photographs I felt the chords of a melody striking; different reactions, different feelings, but all of their soul’s where ringing.
When I came to Second Life and found my way into its art community and I found myself on the doorstep of many galleries. I walked around them, dazed and amazed, everywhere I looked I was ringing in such a pure and honest way. What I saw was amazing, I saw art at its purest form: an expression of a soul. I felt like a little child walking around a famous art gallery being amazed at what he saw, wanting to leap for joy, because his soul and mind had been opened up like never before.
So I did; I leapt for joy and ran out wanting to spread this feeling to as many people as I could find. I wanted to create a place where people could walk around and ring. I wanted them to travel the depths of their souls in the art of another. I wanted them to remember themselves and who they were. Fifty-two artists, one thousand and forty pieces of art, I might have accomplished that, but I will never know. It is a personal journey everyone must take. Maybe I’m too optimistic, but I believe this thing called art is an incredibly powerful thing. So with the last month of Twilight Gallery I hope you will all come back for a final journey into yourselves, and I hope your soul will ring, so I can look at all of your faces and see a beautiful melody.
Come January 1st Twilight Gallery will be closed due to the Open Sim Price Increase.

Variation of a painting from the Tate Britain gallery, London, UK.
The original artwork is the work of an unknown British avant-garde and contemporary artist. The texture I used comes from Lenabem-Anna, for which I thank her very much.

Something I said I would do at some point through the 365 journey. This is my first attempt at making a picture from nothing.
Downloaded 2 free textures from here, one of the bricks and one of 4 white planks. Duplicated the bricks about 10 times and overlaied them on each other flipping and blending with masks to get the bricks across the whole image. I did the same with the floor then merged and changed the perspective. Added some spotlighting effects and a light fitting x 3. Next I got 3 of my favourite pictures and added the fx to emboss the edges, a drop shadow and a texture.
This all came about after watching a tutorial on phlearn.com where I learned about the lighting features that are in photoshop.
Quite pleased with how this one has turned out, and I've always harboured a desire to see my stuff in a gallery haha, I think this is as close as I will get... Now its time to enjoy my day off with the children. Keep clicking everyone!!!

I took this photo at the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery / American Art Museum in Washington, DC. In the large view, it looks like you can walk right through the computer screen and into the museum.
Visited the National Gallery in Ottawa for a wonderful photography exhibit called Anhtropocene with work by Edward Burtynsky...amazing.

Auguste Rodin, 1840 - 1917
The Age of Bronze
L'Age d'Airain model 1875-1876, cast 1903-1904
This cast was purchased by the original owners in 1905 from the artist. I have questions about how involved Rodin was in the creation of the reductions. In the normal course of events the artist would produce a maquette for a sculpture. It would be enlarged or reduced by artisans working under his supervision. The subtlety of surface modulation is mostly lost in the reduced version. flic.kr/p/y3BKJt
The Great Gallery had been on my list for years. It's one of the places you must see if you're interested in rock art. I've heard it described as the single greatest display of prehistoric rock art in North America, also as The Louvre of rock art. 15 feet high by 200 feet long with more than 75 pictographs painted between 2,000 and 8,000 years ago.
Another one of those uncolored gaps in the map of our lives, it was about time we got there.
