I’m delighted to introduce three new human female avatars: Maureen Middle Aged Female, Mary Full Figured Female, and Mireille Modern Female. All three avatars provide more choice of characters for residents who prefer to present themselves realistically in Second Life and other virtual worlds.

Maureen Middle Aged Female Avatar

This is a complete avatar, with a custom skin and middle aged shape, blond hairstyle, light blue eyes, eyeglasses (you can change the frame color), jeans with a lace top, a beige lingerie set, and Mary Jane shoes. She also comes with silver earrings and prim lashes. I also added a facelight.

Mary Full Figured Female Avatar

This is a complete avatar, with a custom skin and full figured shape, blond hairstyle, blue eyes, eyeglasses (you can change the frame color), a sleek black pantsuit, a pink lingerie set, and Mary Jane shoes. She also comes with a silver necklace with earrings and prim lashes. I also added a facelight.

Mireille Modern Female Avatar

This is a complete avatar, with a custom skin and shape, 4 hairstyles, black and brown eyes, a sleek ultramodern black outfit with boots, a short sexy lace lingerie dress, and a lovely silver and black gown with Mary Jane shoes. She also comes with pearl necklace and pearl earrings, and a silver necklace with earrings. One of her updos is quite unique, with beautiful barettes. Mireille is a lovely modern female, comfortable in both Asian and European cultures. She is well educated, well traveled, and speaks a few languages.

You’ll find these new avatars at the Landing Spot in Lethe, and in the human section on Level I of the Atea Avatars Faery Castle Main Store, not far from the main landing point. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lethe/131/138/25.

It has been a while since I’ve had a chance to post about what’s happening at Atea avatars. I have been extremely busy this year with my real life work, revising college courses in digital art and design as well as digital storytelling, and proposing new courses in areas such as media arts and the history and theory of new media. This means that I have had far less time to focus on avatar creation. My in-progress file has been holding a number of new characters. I have been working on them in small doses over the past year as time allows.

I’m delighted to announce I was particularly productive over the memorial weekend, and as a result have been able to graduate a number of new avatars from my work in progress. I’m pleased to announce my new elf series, which includes six new female elves and six male elves.

These complete elf avatars come with a custom skin, elven shape, elf ears, eyes, two hairstyles, and a complete outfit with shoes.

The new elven series has its own section in the Atea avatars main store on Lethe, Isle of Wyrms. You will find the elf mound on the first level of the faery castle main store at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lethe/131/138/25. Please drop by for a visit.

They may also be purchased on the Second Life marketplace: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/28692

Atea Avatars has been having a delightful Spring participating in the FFC Fantasy Faire and the Isle of Wyrms Spring Festival. It is always a pleasure to support Relay for Life and St.Tiggywinkle’s Animal Hospital.

I am delighted to introduce my new creation, the female elf Mereana. This is a complete avatar, with custom elf skin, elf ears, a platinum elven braid, platinum elven curls, eyes, outfit, and shoes. I also added facelight. Mereana is a forest light elf, who is most at home surrounded by trees, streams, rocks and plants. She occasionally ventures out into the outside world.

Mereana’s shape and outfit are fully modifiable. Her custom skin is copy only. Mereana is currently on sale for a limited time at a very special gift price.

If you like this avatar, you’ll find many more sophisticated fantasy avatars at my faery castle on Lethe in Second Life. Mereana is also available Inworldz.

I’m delighted to announce the release of a new type of fae that I have been working on for quite some time now. This series is more reflective of the deep fae of ancient magic times, folkore and mythology, and high fantasy in literature than the type of fae you find in popular animated films or faery tales.

Metua is the first of a new fae series for Atea Avatars. This is a complete avatar, with custom fae skin, fantasy makeup, fae shape, hair, fae eyes, fae ears, genitals, antlers, loincloth and staff.

Metua is a very ancient woodland fae created in wood tones with forest marking on his body and face. He blends in with the woods, moss and mists in the deep forest.

I have also created my first elf, a luminous male, and will be following up with female elves in the future. Mana is the Tahitian word for power or lifeforce. Mana is is a forest light elf, who is most at home surrounded by trees, streams, rocks and plants. He occasionally ventures out into the outside world.

This is a complete avatar, with custom elf skin, modifiable shape, hair, eyes, outfit, genitals, elf ears and lance weapon.

Both new releases are available for purchase in the Hybrid Fae section of the Atea Avatars Faery Court in Lethe on the Isle of Wyrms, Level II. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lethe/131/138/25

I’m delighted to announce that I am opening a new store Inworldz on Zenaidas, right across from Couture Chapeau.

Drop by for a visit to pick up my Halloween Goblin, available for a limited time only for the price of 1 Iz.

Inworldz has a lovely, growing community and reminds me of Second Life in the earlier days when the pioneer spirit reigned and residents came first. I have started migrating my male human avatars, and will follow with neko, fae, and the rest of my fantasy collections. Here are the ones that are currently available Inworldz:

Jacques Elder Male Avatar

Gaston Middle Aged Male Avatar

Gilles Middle Aged Male Avatar

I’ve created a Halloween Goblin complete avatar. He’s adorable! As a special Halloween Gift, I am setting him for sale at $1 L rather than my usual male fantasy avatar price of $2500L.

The complete Goblin avatar comes with a custom Goblin skin, shape, fantasy eyes, goblin ears, horns, scripted tail, and outfit. All items are copy/mod, except for the skin, which is copy only.

You’ll find him on Level II of the Atea Avatars Faery Court on the Isle of Wyrms, in the Hybrid Faeries Dome.

Atea Avatars is proud to collaborate with Daryth Kennedy and Skylarian Isachenko from the Isle of Wyrms in a SLB7 exhibit on collaborating for a charitable cause.

The Isle of Wyrms charity fundraising festivals are themed events inviting the collaboration of fantasy avatar artists and neighboring communities. This “unique collaboration” features displays from the most recent themed festival, reflecting collaborations and contributions from Isle of Wyrms avatar artist Daryth Kennedy, fantasy avatar artist Atea Aeon, festival artistic director Skylarian Isachenko, and members of the Isle of Wyrms citizens group and neighboring communities.

Each festival has a unique theme during which the entire collection of isles is transformed with unique builds, featuring live music performances and community games.

The charity auction raises a significant portion of the funds to benefit St. Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in the United Kingdom, a hospital specializing in small wildlife rescue and rehabilitation. The Isle of Wyrms community has a focus on raising funds for hedgehog rescue.

The Isle of Wyrms, established in the early stages of Second Life, is a vibrant community of dragons, gryphons, tinies and other fantasy avatars. Four times yearly the Isles citizens and their neighbors gather at three day long festivals to raise funds for charity.

A significant portion of the funds are raised from a charity auction, in which dragon, gryphon, and hedgehog avatars by Daryth Kennedy, as well as her dragon familiar shoulder pet, are auctioned alongside fantasy humanoid avatars such as faeries, drows, and nekos by Atea Aeon, and furry avatars by Sylver Bu.

Proceeds from the auction benefit St. Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in the United Kingdom, a hospital specializing in small wildlife rescue and rehabilitation.

Special thanks to the Isle of Wyrms citizens featured in the photographs on this page: Daryth Kennedy, Ayla Wemyss, Georgia McDonnell, Gray Fang, Bernadette Moody, Veritude Moody, and the majestic Skylarian Isachenko.
