Lady Thera's Van Gogh Blossom


I wore Lady Thera's Van Gogh Blossom dress to The Museum of Modern Art at the Newport Gallery of Fine Arts. The museum grounds are beautiful with willow trees, fountains, peacocks, and pleasant poppies scattered over manicured lawns. Inside the museum halls are adorned with artworks from a variety of painters including Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Dali, Matisse, Monet, and Davinci.

Lady Thera's specializes in dresses created in the style of classical painters like those exhibited at the MoMA in Newport. Plus, this particular dress in the style of Vincent Van Gogh reminds me a bit of a peacock. The location seemed a fitting venue for a photo shoot.



Peacocks, even in SL, are finicky birds. They love to show off their beautiful plumage but only at their discretion. I found myself hurriedly running from one pair to another trying to pose, position my camera, and shoot before they closed or turned. A fun game!

I couldn't resist taking a few photos with works by Monet.

Birds, Boots, & Sound Flowers



I love these boots from sf design as well as the birds and  AraSound Machine prim flowers from AraWorks (my neighbors). The flowers emit nature sounds of birds, insects, and animals giving my place a comfortable natural feel.
