Enchanted Keepers of the Realm

I wanted to do something a little different this week for our weekly gallery choices. I had planned to do a blog and recognize the Keepers of the Realm, but decided to combine it with the gallery choices of the week this time. After all, most all the Keepers are artists in their own right :) The Keeper group consists of the greeters and guardians of Enchanted of Elven Realm. It's for those that spend quite a bit of time on the sim and enjoy welcoming people, answering questions and keeping an eye on things. Right now we don't have a schedule for members, but if I ever see there's a need for that, we can do that. This group is invitation only, but if you are interested or would like to become a part of the group, please either IM or send a notecard to me, Natalie Montagne, in world.

I have pictured each Keeper in this blog, whether the picture was done by themselves or a different artist. If available, I've also listed each of their Flickr websites. All pictures were taken at Enchanted...enjoy!

All captions are below the corresponding picture. Please click the picture to see it larger.

Fantasy Art of the Week 3/6/11

Mushroom Delight by Kupula Haroldsen

Our two pieces for this week are Mushroom Delight by Kupula Haroldsen and Resting by the Brook by Marius Drammond. Mushroom Delight was taken in one of my favorite sims in all of Second Life, Tol Narwa Vire, created by Azriel Demain. I think Kupula captured the beauty and magic of these simple mushrooms perfectly! Resting by the Brook was taken in my very favorite sim (guess I'm a little biased :P), Enchanted of Elven Realm. I think Marius captured the beautiful bridge, creek and surrounding forest amazingly well and the colors are outstanding! Marius won Second Place in our Grand Opening Photo Contest for the sim. Please check out both of these artists' wonderful photostreams.
