Art in Second Life 2020 (6) Pencil Brush Paper by Bowfluv Curtiss

One year ago I visited The Citadel (see Simploring 2019 (9) The Citadel). The Citadel is a very well made adult/BDSM friendly venue. For me it has the perfect mixture of my personal Second Life: Art & Architecture, BDSM and a nice environment. The sim is owned by Lesk Alzael who also has a small store named Cabal at The Citadel. I bought a large obelisk and took a free copy of an “Architects Study Model” when I visited in 2019. Both items are at our homesim nowadays.

A few days ago I got a group message that there’s a new exhibition at the Black Lux Gallery at The Citadel. The gallery features the drawn art of Bowfluv Curtiss. The exhibtion is called simply “Pencil Brush Paper”

The Black Lux Gallery is in a large old plant hall with it’s industrial atmosphere. The hall is also used for events at The Citadel. Bowfluv’s art is exhibited at the walls and at a moveable wall in the center of the hall. There’re several erotic pencil drawings in black and white as well as other pictures that are coloured.

Close to the entrance on the left is the picture of a naked female posing for a coloured pencil brush paiting. For me this picture was the most intriguing at the exhibition. It is titeled “Marisa Mirror Mounted”

Each and every painting seems to tell a story. There’s a series of 4 female portraits. All are very different, although the first impression is that they are just slightly different. Each woman has a different eye colour, a different lipstick colour, a diffferent chin, different eye brows, different hair, a different nose. The longer you look at them the more you see the differences.

It’s the first time I ever saw Bowfluv’s art and I didn’t see any notecard or information about him at the gallery. Hence all I know is that he’s in Second Life for more than 13 years and that he still enjoys it (just like I do): “A long time here ….and still everyday a marvel.”

Thank you Lesk Alzael for providing the space for the art at The Citadel, thank you Bowfluv Curtiss for you art. I enjoyed my visit!

Diary 2019 (40) March 15th/16th Delayed start of another green light

Friday, March 15th, Mistress Jenny and I spent our hour in the afternoon at home caring about my victim, aka. SapphicSentiment (durham novaland). I kidnapped her on February 28th (read here) and she was in the terrace cell at home since that day.
Sapphic or as I will refer to her from now on, slave sappy had been prevented from coming inworld for about 2 weeks and it was abotu time that Mistress Jenny had a look at her and that we set up her to our needs and desires. Mistress Jenny got a spare key to her restraints and we layed out some basic rules to the slave that afternoon. We will see how she develops, in any case we still can sell her if we’re not satisfied with her performance.

Friday night we started into our weekend with our regular party. The theme was, no surprise – St. Patrick’s day, which is on March 17th. We had a great, relaxing night.

Saturday, March 16th, I met Oh (ooohhh000) at our sim in the later morning. She found our sim reading my profile and was exploring it. I had not much time, hence we just had a shor chat. In the afternoon Oh was still or again present and slave Flo was cleaning the house. Mistress Jenny and I had another chat with Oh and as the subject came to our game area at Mount Everest, we spontaneously decided to explain skipee to Oh and to play a round.

March 16th: Diomita and Oh (ooohhh000) / Mistress Jenny, Diomita and slave Flo

At night I claimed my property and started a green light. Jenny had granted it a few days ago and was already a bit puzzled that I didn’t start it yet. I had refrained from starting it as I wanted to see how badly my Eheslut needs it *winks*. It worked, she literally asked for it. And when we went over to Puerto Esclava together with slave Flo, my property Jenny did kneel at my side, even when I didn’t ask for it. To keep the hierarchy, it also meant that slave Flo had to lie on the floor in a hogtie.

After slave Flo had to leave, I finally took full advantage of my property and tied her up in a rack at “The Citadel” and teased her. I had in mind to fuck her with my strapon at home …. but sometimes things simply don’t work out as planned…. Jenny was simply too tired to enjoy it properly, hence we stopped.

Diary 2019 (32) March 3rd – A varied Sunday

Sunday, March 3rd, I met my property shortly in the late morning. We could catch up with our mutual news, but that’s about it. When we returned in the afternoon, I first took Jenny to club Domme a Domme again. I just enjoy too much to expose her as mine – and she is mine!

March 3rd: Mistress Diomita and Jenny at home and at club Domme a Domme

Although it was crowded nothing was going on at the club. I just had an IM with a crossdresser eager to serve us. I decided to make the most of my time in control and took Jenny to “The Citadel” again. This time I selected another room and sat down on a throne. My Eheslut Jenny was horny and I opened the zippers of her catsuit and teased her with my foot, using my big toe to rub her intimate spot. Jenny became wet and squirmed and moaned eager to get more….

March 3rd: Mistress Diomita and Eheslut Jenny at “The Citadel”

… but I didn’t let her cum this way. I waited and teased her until she begged me to be fucked *grins*. That was exciting in particluar as we weren’t alone in the house. But Jenny didn’t mind anymore, she was way too eager. I fulfilled her wish and used my strapon making her cum and shout her thank you. When Jenny recovered we went down to see the other guests, but just one was still there and he was absent. And what was in for me? My Eheslut did pay for her pleasure and served me well at home *winks*. That was a nice and enjoyable afternoon.

March 3rd: Mistress Diomita and Eheslut Jenny at “The Citadel” and at home

Jenny wasn’t present at night due to her RL. I met with Angelique in the late afternoon. She was cleaning our house as she couldn’t bear with all the dirt anymore. Angelique confessed that she compensated her sadness about a failed relation with shopping. Of course she had used my credit card again and she just gave me a heads up that there might be not much money left. Brat! At least she got some nice clothes and she showed what she got to me. How can you be angry with such a beautiful beloved niece *sighs*.
After dinner I returned and had a bath – and Angelique joined me. It just happened, it had built up over the course of the days before … we couldn’t hold back anymore. A few pictures tell more than words do.

March 3rd: Diomita and Angelique

Still exhausted but really satisfied and relieved that all the tension had vanished we left the bathroom, dressed and went to club DeLust. slave Flo joined us there and we stayed about half an hour. With her restrictions slave Flo couldn’t really enjoy our time at DeLust the night before. Hence we returned home and had a round of skipee (Angelique won it clearly).
But the night wasn’t over yet. While we were playing, slave slut cecy came inworld. She watched us playing and after we had finished and slave Flo had left to bed, Angelique and I took the slut to Mesmerize Dungeon. I used her as my chair and teased the slut’s ass with my high heels, just as I did the night before with Mara. Knowing slut cecy, it didn’t take long and she began to beg to be allowed to cum in RL and SL. It was already late….

March 3rd: Diomita and Angelique with slave Flo at club Delust / and with slave slut cecy at Mesmerize Dungeon

Being in a good mood, I finally allowed her to cum. Now there’s another stain on the floor of Mesmerize Dungeon.
I had a really full and kinky Sunday.

Diary 2019 (31) March 1st/2nd Back in control

Friday, March 1st, we had our regular party again. Virgo selected “You have to fight for your right to party” as the theme. Hence some of us wore weapons or warrior outfits, others decided just to fight with female weapons. We had fun again!

Friday night party, March 1st: Virgo (upper left), Angelique (upper middle), Sarah and vero (upper right), slave Flo, Diomita, Jenny, Angelique (lower left), Diomita and Jenny (lower middle), Claire Arwen Alassé and Della (lower Right)

When Jenny came inworld, Saturday, March 2nd, I took immediately control. Jenny had granted a green light starting that Saturday and I didn’t want to miss a minute of it. I had selected a black latex outfit for my property Jenny with a bloack latex hood. Actually Angelique inspired me for this outfit. Of course I took Jenny to club Domme a Domme first. That made sense because of the club’s name and because we’re there quite often again lately and I wanted to proudly expose my property.

Saturday, March 2nd: Diomita with her property Jenny at club Domme a Domme and at The Citadel

But although the club was full, nothing happened and after I while I took Jenny to The Cidadel (read also my simploring report about The Citadel here). I first took a short rest in a chair which provided also space for a slave, then I suspended Jenny and teased her, used my fingers, enjoyed her squirming and finally her orgasm for me. It’s good to be back in control (for a while).

Saturday, March 2nd: Diomita with her property Jenny at The Citadel

Saturday night began slowly. Angelique was inworld at home when I came online. She asked me to select something to wear for her and she accentuated that I was free what to select for her. Angelique has a very broad and large wardrobe and hence it took a while (actually 30 minutes) to select soemthing fitting to my mood. I admit, I was very satisfied with the result.
Just when I had finished dressing Angelique Jenny joined us at home and not long after Mara (Maralyn Corleone) visited us. She had been at the party the night before and logged out at Mount Everest – and hance logged in there again. After some chatting I decided to take Jenny and our niece to club DeLust and invited Mara to come with us.

Saturday, March 2nd: Angelique, Diomita and Jenny at home / Jenny, Angelique, Diomita and Mara at club DeLust

 

It became a busy night. club DeLust was full and there was some main chat. I talked with Jenny, Angelique and Mara and others. slave Flo and slave slut cecy joined us at club DeLust. Mara was in a slutty mood (isn’t she always?). I decided to give up my seat on the sofa for Angelique and had a seat on slut Mara. slave slut cecy was dancing on the table for us and for all other guests.
I began to tease slut Mara and to poke her ass with my heel .. and I used my heel to fuck her ass, in public! I guess slut Mara entertained the whole club. She became very eager to cum … and finally had an orgasm leaving another spot on the carpet. As I hadn’t allowed her to cum, I fixed her in the public pillory at the club so that everybody could take advatage of her later.

Saturday, March 2nd, at club DeLust: slave Flo, Jenny, Angelique, Diomita sitting on slut Mara, slave slit cecy dancing on the table

Angelique in the meanwhile fought not to pee and she succeeded in preventing an accident. slut cecy was jealous of slut Mara …. and Jenny and I had fun talking with each other about various themes, in particular about an admirer of Angelique with a funny name. When slave Flo, who was the only one not getting enough attention that night (it’s sometimes hard to give everybody a fair share of attention), had to leave and to go to bed, we returned home, leaving slut Mara in the pillory. Jenny and I retreated to our skybox soon after and I was spoiled by my Eheslut’s tongue. It’s really good to be back in control.

Dio’s 11th year in Second Life Feb 11th, 2019 – Part II

Yesterday, I had my my 11th anniversary of joining Second Life.
It has become a tradition for me to write a longer blog post on the occasion of my rezzdays, to have a look back on the last year and to realize the changes in my Second Life as well as the things that didn’t change. Yesterday, I published Part I of my anniversary entry and talked about my closer family and the changes in my family. Today’s part 2 is about my simploring tours and other highlights of my 11th year.

Let me start with my simploring tours, and there were many! I admire the creativity of artists in this virtual world, I visited galleries like DaphneArts, La Masion D’Aneli, Diotima, Niflheimer Art Gallery, the Alphalune Creations gallery of Berry Richez, the VOIR gallery and lately the gallery of Gem Preiz. I explored 8 installations and 2 exhibtions of Cica Ghost, who always conjures a smile in my face. I attended several light shows of Mario2 Helstein.
I also saw and reported about quite some installations that were supported by the Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA) like Gem Preiz’ Demiurge, The Labyrinth Experience or Light thoughts 4 and many more. In the meanwhile I know a little bit of the art scene in Second Life and I am looking forward with curiosity to my 11th year in SL and the art I’ll see.

Gem Preiz’ Demiurge – opened until End of June 2018

I found many cosy and lovely sims where people buildt their own dreamworld, peaceful and picturesque. You don’t need many prims or a large place for it, Sweet Paradise of the Darks and Cake are examples for that. Most of these dreamworlds were homesteads: Maison de L’amitié, Wild Edge, Season of Joy, Hinansho, Glenrosa, Winter Moon, Adele, Baileys Norge, The Silent Mind, Chochou … just to name a few. In these sims I spent relaxing hours and enjoyed the views and the peace.
Some were really particular. I want to mention the Zany Zen Railway, a tiny, almost cute railroad crossing several sims. Zimminyville did impress me too with it’s two so different parts, the lovely picturesque town and the moon colony. And just rescently I visited The VR Planetarium Dome, not only an instructive place, but offering great views and also lot’s of fun.

Then there were the sims that have a real background, where a place in the physical world was build in Second Life. This way I got a picture, an idea of the real places and my visit gave reason to do a little bit of research. The Beguinage of Bruges (in Belgium) was one of these impressing places and I spent some time learning about this place in the real world.
I never heard about the Isle of May, Achill Island, Black Bayou Lake or Rummu – now I have the feeling that I’ve been there already, not only because I read about these places and saw pictures but I got a 3-dimensional impression in Second Life.
Outstanding was also the visit of the Chateau of Clagny, a place which doesn’t exsist anymore. In Second Life it came back to existence.

I also discovered many places related to my kinky side, to BDSM. That’s another dream you can live in Second Life and I do. Unfortunately some of these places don’t stay long like the Knot Society, Club Fem, Silent Manor or Mastering the Zen.
I discovered Meadow Rose, a perfect combination of a dreamworld, cosy and picturesque but also with it’s kinky corners. I was also impressed by The Citadel, a combination of art and kink. We visited the Tentacles, a park which was created by our friend Starbright Wingtips. We also visited the Steampunk prison of her.

Thank you all for building, for creating and for sharing your dreams with the rest of the community. And please apologize if I did not mention all of my tours, it were simply too many. I did really enjoy all of my simploring tours!

What else happened in this 11th year?
Again way more than I expected before reading back my own blog. And way more than I can summarize in this blog entry. We had several 10th anniversaries: Kitty’s 10th collaring, Jenny’s 10th rezzday, Jenny’s 10th collaring, Mistress Jenny’s and my 10th wedding anniversary. We also had 2 weddings at our sim, held in the chapel that was once errected by Danii Szydlowska.
Angelique performed at the Little Princess Ballet Academy Show in February 2018. She also spent a lot of time “working” as a maid at the Hilltop Manor located in The Apostasy. Angelique spent a short time serving at Sainte Agathe Castle. And together with slave Flo Angelique “worked” at the Paradise Finishing School.

slave Flo and AnneWanne were our twin drones and provided a lot of fun for us, mixing them up as Flo drone and Drone Flo. Later we had quite some time where our slaves were Rubber Rocket Dolls. Trying to tempt people touching the rocket boobs and getting Rubber Rocket Dolls themselves when the rockets hit them, was fun.
Our slave kelly was rented out for more than 2 weeks to Antony (antonygift) and made some new and exciting experiences away from her owners.

Mistress Jenny became more and more the (not secret) decider in the background as my submission to her got deeper and deeper. My red lights, when she takes full control were very intense, in particular as my submissive feelings got stronger each time. This way my green lights were highlights for me in this 11th year and I look forward to those Mistress will grant to me in my 12th year. Mistress Jenny now got a mesh head too, it was my present to her for her 10th rezzday in March 2018. She’s just adorable in every way!

We also still enjoy bondage in all forms. We tried out new racks and new toys like the serious plug pear or the serious nipple rings. The slaves, in particular slave kelly, made some incisive experiences with the pear.

May 7th: slave kelly leashed by the serious plug at Lochme

I continued creating one “Enjoying Bondage” picture per month, that always also highlighted the activities of the according month.
Last but not least we had our great Friday night parties every Friday. We think that it might be the longest regular weekly party in whole Second Life with a duration of more than 11 years. Virgo is still our dj every week and we enjoy starting our weekends dancing and chatting amoung friends. Thank you, Virgo!

Mistress Jenny and I as well as the core members of our little family are embedded in a great community of friends, we know some of them way over a decade now, some for several years and some are new friends of ours. Even if not mentioned by name in this anniversary blog post, these friends do mean a lot to me. SL is first of all about people and it’s you all who make my and our SL what it is: Still going strong, still enjoyable and still exciting! It was a great 11th year in Second Life and I look forward to the 12th!
Love from Diomita

Diary 2019 (9) January 16th The 1st green light of the year

Jenny had granted a green light before I went off for my short vacation and I started it Tuesday night before we went off to bed. Hence I had plans for Wednesday afternoon, January 16th. When Jenny came inworld we first talked about the day before and exhanged mutal news, then I took my Eheslut to “The Citadel”. I had tried out the equipment at the top of the tower there, named “The Redoubt”, before. I fixed her on a cross and began teasing her. Then I fucked her hard with my strapon, enjoying my control and power over my property and wife.

January 16th: Diomita with her Eheslut Jenny at home and at “The Citadel”

When I was done we returned home and tended to slave kelly. I had locked her up in a cell at our house after having my way with her the night before. And I had told her that she will get out again, just to be (ab-)used again. Therefore she should have known what she had to expect. Nonetheless she was surprised, when Jenny took out her strapon and fucked her the same way, I did the night before – just with an even bigger strapon. And when Jenny was done with her, it was already time for us to tend to our RL again.

January 16th: Diomita with her Eheslut Jenny at “The Citadel” / Jenny having her way with slave kelly at our office / Diomita with her Eheslut Jenny at home

We locked away slave kelly again, said hello to slave Gwen, who just had come inworld and retreated to our skybox, where my property worshiped me in a proper way. What a full, varied and satisfying afernoon!

Our night was comparably quiet. Jenny ran late and I took slave kelly to Psi’s realm. There were some aquaintances and we chatted a bit. Jenny joined us there. Later we went to Mesmerize Dungeon, read profiles and looked at outfits. But nothing was going on really. I had to make the most of my green light and hence we brought kelly back home and locked her in the cage at the porch of our house. I took my Eheslut to club Domme a Domme and enjoyed having her at my leash and kneeling at my feet. That’s way too rare!

Back home in our skybox I got a special service from Jenny before we went to bed … and that’s it for this day.

Simploring 2019 (9) The Citadel

When I came inworld earlier than usually on Tuesday night, January 8th, slave Gwen was present. Reading profiles I had grabbed a landmark a few days before about a place named “The Citadel” and I wanted to have a look at the Black Lux Gallery there. Knowing that it is an adult place, I simply took slave Gwen with me.

The Citadel – overview

The Citadel is an adult homestead owned by Lesk Alzael. The landing point is quite in the center of the sim, right opposed to a store named Cabal. There are not many things you can buy there, but they are extraordinary. I bought a large obelisk and had a look around. Cabal is presenting Lesk’s work that extends from decor and sculptures to architecture. There’s also a group joiner for the Cabal group and for the The Citadel group at the landing Point.

Impressions of The Citadel (1) – Cabal store (upper left) / at Eagle’s Landing (lower left) / Black Lux Gallery (lower right)

You can get around the sim either on foot or using the teleporters. I visited the Black Lux Gallery first as it was the main reason why I wanted to visit. The gallery right now shows a potpourri of the 2018 exhibitions. Obviously the program changes monthly. You can grab a notecard explaining how you could exhibit your art at the gallery’s entrance. The gallery does have a second usage as an event hall.

Impressions of The Citadel (2) – Black Lux Gallery

The next place I visited with slave Gwen at The Citadel was the Sunwater Hall, a big house full furnished and equipped. The open main room is used as a club with lots of cosy places to sit and pole dance areas. The furniture is stylish, the decoration artful and the place is used thoughtfully. I liked in particular the cell, that is installed under the staircase, what a sensful usage of this otherwise dead space! There are more rooms at Sunwater Hall and they are all worth having a look into. Clearly this space is adult *winks*.

Impressions of The Citadel (3) – Sunwater Hall

In the meanwhile Mistress Jenny has joined us and we went visiting the big tower overlooking the sim called “The Redoubt”. It is equipped with many bdsm furniture and I consider to visit with Mistress again, maybe on the occasion of a green light. Mistress and I tried out a throne with a cage under it. Again, this tower is furnished stylish and it is not a dark dungeon.

Impressions of The Citadel (4) – The Redoubt / a view from the gallery to the landing point with the Cabal store (lower right)

I also visited Castle Gardens and Eagle’s Landing, both are parks and offer cosy areas to sit and communicate or to just enjoy.
The Citadel is a very well made adult/BDSM friendly venue. For me it has the perfect mixture of my personal Second Life: Art & Architecture, BDSM and a nice environment. Good that I discovered it and made a first tour.
Thank you Lesk for providing the sim for playing and for providing the space for the art. The obelisk should remind me to come back soon, once I found a place for it at our home. I enjoyed my first visit!

Secretly British

Inspired once again by the “Living in a Modemworld” blog I visited “The Citadel”. Please read more here: http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/10/04/when-you-enter-the-citadel-who-might-you-find/
The sim is certainly obligatory for Dr.Who followers. For me it was more a place to take some nice and artful pictures and i felt very British in this environment.
