How to Turn SL-Based Images Into Visual Art

Cajsa Lilliehook just posted a new collection of beautiful SL-based images which transcend being mere screenshots or Photoshopped screenshots to being works of visual art that stand on their own. What I especially admire about Ms. Lilliehook is she goes far beyond saying "Oooh pretty" by providing a smart analysis of how these images work aesthetically. For instance, for this one here, "Window" by Sadbad Shan, here's some of what she says:

The triangularization of the composition is powerful and makes this an incredibly stunning picture on many levels. We instinctively look for geometric shapes when we look at the environment and when we look at pictures. When they are used to frame a composition or as key elements in a composition it satisfies our senses.

So yeah, if you're looking to make your Second Life screenshots become more artful... let Lilliehook lead.
