A visit to the Layachi Art Gallery

Silas Merlin introduced me to a fantastic artist called Layachi Ihnen, whose exhibit "Visions éphémères ...  éphémeral visions" at  Layachi Art Gallery opened today and will be open for two weeks. I find his use of acrylic painting and digital technologies together to be intriguing. You should also visit his main gallery here.

Beautiful art by Silas Merlin

I had to post about all the beautiful art Silas Merlin does. It would be lovely to see people write stories about these imaginative pieces.

Silas Merlin AKA Jean-François Le Saint, is a talented artist from France. He has been a Master Pastelist (Maître Pastelliste) of the Pastel Society of France (Société des Pastellistes de France) since 2009 and now makes amazing digital art, such as the statues shown in this post, in Second Life. His website has more information and pictures. You can watch this video from an exhibit in SL that he also had in real life. And I loved seeing how he does his pastels.
