Amy Wilson’s real paintings of virtual vistas

Posted on May 22, 2007 by

Watercolor

Bryan Campen sent me news about this fun art book Postcards from Second Life, created by Amy Wilson. Amy has created a series of lovely watercolors chronicling her travels in the virtual world.  I love how her broad strokes and washes lend a dream-like quality to the fantastic vistas one sees everyday in SL.  And you gotta love a book where the introduction by Bryan tells you to "put it down and go outside."

For sale as both a physical book at Lulu Press and a virtual one available after June 2 at Bergman Books in Nemesis (teleport SLURL ).
