four Yip Art Exhibition 10-10-08
Impressione Announces the Opening of a New Art Exhibit Featuring the Works of four Yip at the KMADD Center for the Arts
four Yip is a shining star in 2D digital art. She is a master with graphic manipulation in Photoshop, where she turns snapshots of avatars she meets and creates realistic portraits that look like a combination of a painting and a photograph. Often whimsical, always evocative, Yip's work stands powerfully on its own. It opens wide the window to the soul of the player behind the avatar, picking up on clues of that person's personality from their style and appearance. Some may recognize Yip from her notable presence in the SL Flickr community, others from her tiny, quirky shop in which she "sells" everything for free from a propeller swing for four, to winged, stork-legged bird chairs to a Charlie Chaplin cinema package (moving background included).
In the tradition of showcasing the most creative, talented people of Second Life, KMADD welcomes four Yip to KMADD Center for the ARTS. The exhibit opens on Friday, October 10th, at 3pm SLT, followed by Mitch Triellis (www.allanpetersen.cl) live from Chile singing famous old school jazz songs (Bobby Darin, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin) on the KMADD City Plaza beginning at 4pm slt. Kirk, Maddox, and four may take a moment to drop by during the opening!
