PlayRoom

Seraphim calls this her ‘playroom’. This is where she unpacks all her latest gacha treasures, where she fixes old, broken gacha she finds, and where she has some of her favourite things…

… it’s a cosy mess…

… where she feels very comfortable just puttering around with her stuff…

… she has a lot of ‘stuff’. Most of the rooms in her house are far more disciplined than this in their decoration, usually adhering to a very distinct ‘style’, even if it is ‘Seri-style’…

… the only real style here is ‘super-eclectic-Seri-Style’…

… and fun (:

Day One

Seraphim’s human has just been in hell (hospital) for ten days, following major, life-changing surgery. Because of that, you have not seen anything of Seraphim, recently…

… Seri came back last night, to her little ‘art project’ in Slovakia, Slovensko, where she only had days remaining on her rent, owing to the human having not expected the long, complication-ridden hospital stay…

… it was lovely to be back, and to save the little project before it was all auto-returned. Because Seraphim reflects the mood of her human, Seri will be very slow and awkward, for, at least, the next month…

… probably not doing much more than just being there, because she missed it so much, and just being there is pretty much all she’s up to, currently.

Dark Colour

Seraphim recently went to Oxymoron, somewhere she’s not been for years…

… she doesn’t remember that the sim had all these beautiful pose areas…

… all in wonderful darkness that makes lit colour look amazing…

… as well as some awesome light sources in the environment…

… well worth wandering around in the dark to find.

Puddlechurch

Seraphim visited Puddlechurch, today…

… there was plenty of bucolic splendour in which to roam…

… in what had the feel of an early 1900’s, or late-Victorian era countryside…

… just before this point, there is some unpleasantness, featuring a tree full of lynched dolls of babies. Seraphim found it disturbing, but typical of what is often just around the corner, in SL…

… after that, the early-industrial theme gets more pronounced…

… still with plenty of decayed, seedy beauty…

… sadly, not long after this shot, Seri walked into one of those bolshy, belligerent security areas that told her she’d be evicted if she didn’t fuck off in 20 seconds. Seraphim HATES those things! Especially on land supposedly open to the public… she was so annoyed, she tp’d home, and doubts she’ll be back.

A Thousand Windows

Seraphim visited ‘A Thousand Windows‘, last evening…

… she was immediately struck by how much it looked like Kowloon…

… all the neon and charm of Kowloon…

… all the clutter and convoluted alleyways of Kowloon…

… but, somehow, cleaner, brighter…

… less claustrophobic and seedy… safer, somehow.

True Story

Chicken7

Seraphim did a book cover about Veyot’s motel (:

Midnight Sanctum

Sanctum

Seraphim visited the ‘Midnight Sanctum Gallery‘, last evening…

Sanctum2

… there was some very good work there…

Sanctum3

… she was pleasantly surprised… there were no SL ‘art’ nudes, or fractals, which was a wonderful change…

Sanctum4

… just thoughtful, intelligent photography… all of which was for sale. Her favourite thing there, though…

Sanctum5

… was this gorgeous bird sculpture, which she would totally have bought, but it wasn’t for sale!

*Seraphim has since found out that this gallery is the ‘Third Eye’ gallery. She also wound up with one of the gorgeous bird sculptures, thanks to Annie Brightstar, who told her where to get it.

Babe

Babe4Post-small2

When she’s feeling creative, Seraphim often tries quickly designing posters or covers for non-existent books, just as a warmup. This is one about an alien babe who, um, travels to exotic places and has adventures (:

Summertime

summertime

Seraphim visited Cica Ghost’s latest installation, ‘Summertime‘, yesterday…

summertime2

… as always with a Cica Ghost production, Seri ran with the existing windlight…

summertime3

… she has always found the light in Cica Ghost’s worlds to feel liquid/sub-aquatic, but the light at ‘Summertime’ can only be described as ‘bilious’… it is the most extreme/alien windlight Seri has so far seen in a Cica Ghost world…
