Click here to teleport all through this month (after which it goes away) into the latest gorgeously whimsical experience created by longtime SL-based artist Cica Ghost. It's called Drawn Town, and as that suggests, it's almost like moving through a 3D chalkboard drawing:
"[M]y first public work in Second Life was a black and white world that I called CICA," Ms. Ghost explains. "It was on the Linden Endowment for Arts sim and was mostly black drawings on alpha textures on white background, with some animation script. People liked that place; there are still many who tell me how it was their favorite from all of my work."
But that experience was created quite awhile ago, and she decided to revisit that style:
"I was thinking I could make [another] black and white place but with better building skills I have now, compared to 7 years ago." This time, it's white drawings on a black background: "I made a few houses, star grass, and one of my 50 cats I repainted white to fit." You can see more images from her Drawn Town on her Flickr page.
Since going live last week, SLers have been enthusing about Drawn Town. "I am very happy about it."
But Cica being Cica, she's also thinking ahead: "I should already start thinking of what new to make," she tells me, grinning emotically.
