Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting
Alma Berta’s “Clear Blue” is a great example of Second Life anime avatars and the Kawaii aesthetic. The pose is cute and the clothing, hair, and accessories exude the femininity and amplified romanticism of Kawaii culture. I also love the blue color story, a useful reminder to the kawaii world that blue is not just for boys.
Is anything more kawaii than strawberries and meringue kisses? “Day 15” is a great example of kawaii being more than soft pastels. She is wearing bold red and blue. With the strawberries, it’s still pure kawaii.
In “Don’t Be Naughty” we catch Alma Berta’s avatar relaxing at home and she’s still cute, adorable, and adventurous. I notice one of the books is “Hygge” which makes sense. After all, isn’t hygge the Scandinavian kawaii? Coziness and cuteness at the antipodes of each other. This picture, with the tea, fruit, and rocking chair are purely hygge comfort, but of course, the bloomers and the adorable cuteness is purely kawaii.
Do check out Alma Berta’s stream. It is pure kawaii fun. I love the imaginative settings she creates to complement her outfits. Her styling is original and imaginative. She is a creative stylist and her stream is an uplifting pleasure.
