How We Look and Feel, 17 October 2009


Now let's not accuse Tessa of goddess illusions. It was just that I was cruising through Liliana Bethune's fabulous Lilypili garden center and happened to come upon this scene of unbridled depravity by some obscure artist or other. (Memo to Tessa: DETAIL, Tessa, DETAIL!)It was lust at first sight and now it's in pride of place on the wall.
Meanwhile the Lilypili Garden Center is a riot of ever expanding color. They have gone the way of all flesh and replaced most of their multi-prim plants with sculpties. One result of this is that you can now fill your garden with four or five times as many plants as previously and become hopelessly lost in your own jungle (Memo to Tessa: find that freakin sculpty tiger you lost in the undergrowth before it's too late)
The downside is that, with several squillion plants, all sculpty, Mr Lag is in his element and movement is nigh impossible (am I seeing a theme here?). Tessa advises checking the position of what you want in search before rezzing and navigating blind. Works for me, should work for you. The owners are disturbingly New Age but this means that Tess got a fabulous set of Buddha gates in brass and gold and they are now standing at the front entrance to her house in the Better Half of Weekend Retreat. There is also a 15 foot statue (one prim) of the god Nike (no silly, the god of Victory, not the god of Sports Shoes) blocking my view of the ocean.
