A WORTHY CAUSE

In celebration of our new gallery artists and updates, I'd like to announce a couple things going on. First, any and all donations given to the sim or gallery from now until October 4 will go to a children's charity called, First Book. The organization helps children in need by giving them access to books so they can also listen to wonderful bedtime stories and create lifetime memories like other children. Thank you in advance for your donations for this cause :)

FEATURE ARTWORK DISPLAY

Please be sure and stop by the gallery and see our Feature Artwork display at the landing point, along with all the new pictures in the main gallery. The pictures at the landing point are one or two pieces chosen from most artists’ works within the gallery representing the Storybook theme and concentrate on fairy tales and reading in general. It’s wonderful to see all these together in one place!

PHOTO CONTEST

We are also incorporating a photo contest to go along with the Storybook theme, so use your imaginations, dress up your avie, and have fun! Here are the guidelines:

1. You have until Wednesday, October 3 to submit all pictures.

2. Pictures can be taken at any sim or setting as long as it's a storybook theme.

3. You may submit 2 pictures.

4. Pictures can be submitted to Natalie Montagne in game as a texture or photo in a notecard in the Flickr group link: http://www.flickr.com/groups/2092071@N23/. If you submit in game, please be sure and put your avie's full name on the submission.

5. No nudity allowed

Prizes will be based on originality, creativity, and staying within the theme. They are as follows:

First Place - 5000L
Second Place - 3000L
Third Place - 1000L

Please message Natalie Montagne either here or in game if you have any questions. Good luck and have fun!

New Artists at Enchanted Kaleidoscope Gallery!

Hi Enchanted Dreamers and guests :) I know it's been a LONG time since I've posted here. I've had alot going on in my first life, which has kept me from doing quite a bit of what I normally did here online and in Second Life. Well, recently, I've been updating and adding some things to our lovely art gallery over Enchanted. I've just added 7 new wonderful artists to our already fantastic collection of talent. All of them are true fantasy artists and produce exceptional work continuously. Please stop by the gallery to see their works and some other new updates too :)

Feature Fantasy Artist at the Gallery!

Please stop by the Fantasy Kaleidoscope Gallery over Enchanted. We have a new Feature Fantasy artist's works on display. Her name is Patricie Sapphire and she's one of the most talented artists in Second Life and Flickr! Her work is whimsical, eccentric, unique and beautiful. Patricie puts her all into every picture she produces, each piece representing her emotions at the time she developed it. All 16 of her works will only be featured at the landing point for a limited time. However, Patricie's art will be a part of our ongoing gallery after being featured.

For more detailed information about Patricie, please see my blog:

The best way to get to the gallery is by teleporting through the door to your right at the landing point of Enchanted (in the cave). Also, here is a landmark: Elven Realm 126, 125, 245. Hope to see you there!

New and Updated Gallery!

The fantasy gallery over Enchanted of Elven Realm has just been updated and renewed. Before we had a mix of artists on display only. We now have 11 artists' works on display, each with their own donation option along with an artist's bio and website (flickr stream) giver. Some have chosen to sell their work, while others are only accepting donations. Due to the kindness and generosity of all the artists, most monies collected are going back to benefit the upkeep and maintenance of the Enchanted sim along with the gallery. Please be sure and stop by and enjoy the new gallery updates!

SeleneLily Galicia is still our Featured Fantasy Artist through the end of this month. If you haven't been by to see her works, please do so soon before it's gone. There are 17 of her works on display right now. Once this is over, about 6-7 of her works will be an ongoing display in the gallery.

Feature Fantasy Artist: SeleneLily Galicia

We have a new feature artist at the Fantasy Kaleidoscope Gallery! She happens to be a resident at Enchanted and a great friend and sister to me :) SeleneLily Galicia has been creating pictures in Second Life for quite a while now and is exceptionally good at it! My favorites of hers are her fantasy pictures (of course), and she is a natural at them along with being her forte. Selene is a professional photographer in real life and that talent shines through in all her wonderful works. Please stop by the gallery over Enchanted and see 17 of her pieces on display. Just go to the Enchanted of Elven Realm landing point and then use the door to your right to teleport to the gallery. It was hard to narrow down what I wanted to showcase because all her pictures are amazing. Thank you for your support and enjoy!
