Yes…

… I think Baker Bloch can be happy in Sansara Snow Country for another month.

The Power Tower Gowlery is coming along smashingly.

A couple of nights ago I created a flight of stairs to the 3rd floor (floor transparent from below), now containing the quite new and exciting Lis series, the 3rd of the new year. Didn’t expect this!

The Lis series should be completed by mid-March. Then I’ll totally be finished with collages for a while (???)

Deepening Dike 01 02 03

Linked base photographs from Brian Robert Marshall for projected new (last?) collage of Latona, Latona 08 09 10 perhaps. Excitement! This is from West Woods, not Savernake, but the forests are similar, and both are near Marlborough already depicted in various ways in several collages of Gilatona.

Individual photos here, and associated links with Marshall’s always interesting captions…

Here’s Baker Bloch staring at the joined base photos in my Second Life “Power Tower Gowlery”. What to fill it with, what to fill it with, what to *fill* it with?

New Pietmond — What Remains (etc.)

As of this writing New Pietmond is no more — for now. I abandoned all Second Life land and returned to a (free) basic membership. Hated to give up the land, but I could tell I wasn’t going to do much with it in February, especially since I’ve now completed (apparently) the Gila series, which I’ll continue to analyze today, hopefully. I tried an experiment on a super cheap parcel in Sansara Snow Land before giving up premium, with interesting result. I’ve kept a record of my brief sojourn there in the first photo below.

Here’s a last shot of New Pietmond. Already in this picture I’d deleted half the town, however.

What I *still* have in Second Life, among some trifles here and there, is this Rubi gallery called “Wiltshire Virtual”, that contains the Gila series along with the Baker Bloch in England exhibit. Seems like a perfect location for it.

There’s a good chance I’ll rent land next to the snow land seen in the first photo. Interesting neighborhood — cool, virtual site. If so, I’ll be at about 20 dollars a month instead of close to 50. At the very most I would have kept New Pietmond around for another month so it was soon to go anyway. Just decided to pull the plug now and put it out of its misery. But I’m not finished with Second Life, and New Pietmond or the equivalent may return later, perhaps this summer. We’ll just see.
