Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting
“They say you die twice” is a picture by "Big D" that I almost missed. I stopped to look more closely because I recognized the quote and wanted to see how the picture illustrated. The full quote from Banksy is, “They say you die twice, Once when you stop breathing and again when your name is spoken for the last time.” D's idea is subtle but perfect as the avatar is erased in the diamonds of the fencing, disappearing bit by bit as people’s memories of him disappear.
In the description, he suggests the image is in honor of people he's helped as medical worker in real life: "This is my tribute to all my patients who have gone and those that are about to. They've all enriched my life in their own little ways and they will all live on in my heart." Great concept and done brilliantly.
He also has some very slice-of-life pics like the next one, click here:
“You think we need one more” is such a naturalistic picture. That looking at the rest of the crowd, wondering one more? Sure, one more.
“The Freeloaders” gives us three good friends enjoying their free Christmas gift heads. Don’t you love how one head can look so different on three different people? I love the feeling of camaraderie in this picture.
Big D’s photostream is fun and full of Second Life activities as well as screenshots from Red Dead Online and Cyberpunk 2077. There are a couple pictures that will get you in trouble with Human Resources, so either use a moderate filter on Flickr or enjoy it at home. Actually, enjoy it at home, the one picture that would probably get you in the most trouble is fabulous even though it’s quite explicit. I love the way he uses light to highlight her curves and his.
