artist | The Walrus Room

Hey, guys. Guess who has a new header? My friend who made the old header, originally out of a doodle made in art class that I put on my wall of me and my good friends reincarnate in out animal form, has been using her tablet for a lot longer now and seems to be getting incredible. I think this header suits the blog a lot better and isn’t it just pretty?

Yet, again. I urge you to go on over and check out my friend, Xara’s Deviant Art, here. And be aware that she does some pretty kick-ass Pokemon comics, lots of chibi characters, some very dark sketches and is currently partaking in the Larken’s SS Nuzlocke in comic form (which is basically playing Pokemon set to strict guidelines, for instance if a pet dies you can never use it again because it is dead, and documenting it’s hilariousness in comic form – with an added narrative.) And not to brag about my friend but she has been involved in two exhibition’s so far, for her water colour and pen paintings and sold quite a bit of artwork – so check that out too!

Some of her artwork is as follows. But is her property and that alone unless otherwise stated by the artist.

I have a few favourite artist’s. My favourite would have to be Char Davies, she is amazing. She created two whole 3D virtual universes that are sectioned into seasons, places and even organs or blood. The pictures and video’s of it’s exploration are amazing. She’s an inspiration.

The movement in each world is created by your breath and balance. You’ll move faster if you breath rapidly and forward if you balance forward. It’s suppose to simulate you flying. Some say that the music and atmosphere is creepy and frightening but I think it’s beautiful and peaceful.

I first stumbled across Char Davies work while doing an art assignment and am so glad that I did. I wouldn’t have wanted to miss this beautiful creation, that’s leading to further development of virtual art.

Here is some exploration of one of the virtual worlds called Osmose.
