Kylie Sabra Walter Gedenspire amp Bianca Gedenspire

I grew up in a happy home filled with music laughter and oodles of

love I studied at the Philadelphia College of Art and the Chester County

Yellow Springs Studio Other studies include 12 years of piano and

extensive study in dance

I strive to create a picture that captures a subjectrsquos soul tells a story

and emulates a feeling Creating special sets from scratch is a passion

for me Ripping apart my sim to create the perfect atmosphere is

nothing new

I like to say I am a protege of Graham Collinson but have developed

into my own style

By the way I have a craving for happiness I hope it is contagious

Bianca Gedenspire Curator

ldquoPassionate about words and images Second Life has allowed

me to give new dimension to my passions poetry and

photography

rdquoExploring new horizons in Second Life I shape my images in

the colors of my feelings and if I appropriate the meaning of

what I look at it with respect and in communion with their

creator then I give them a new light

ldquoMy photos tell a story They reflect the emotions within me

with either happiness or sadness explosion of joy or dismay

They always are created with the same intense passion I like

to mix old with modern or futuristic styles as it is a

continuity because everything feeds on what it was like a

state of soulmdasha timeless landscape My designs are often both

powerful and gentle they open the door to the imagination

ldquoWhen I make a picture time is no longer valid the

constraints no longer exist I am inspired I fly lsquoA watercolor

Pratt said is not only a story It is the translation of a feeling

a memory a state of mindrsquo The same goes for these images

just the translation of a memory a mood and support of a

dream And dreaming is an art dreaming is a necessityrdquo

Kylie Sabra Walter Gedenspire amp Bianca Gedenspire

I grew up in a happy home filled with music laughter and oodles of

love I studied at the Philadelphia College of Art and the Chester County

Yellow Springs Studio Other studies include 12 years of piano and

extensive study in dance

I strive to create a picture that captures a subjectrsquos soul tells a story

and emulates a feeling Creating special sets from scratch is a passion

for me Ripping apart my sim to create the perfect atmosphere is

nothing new

I like to say I am a protege of Graham Collinson but have developed

into my own style

By the way I have a craving for happiness I hope it is contagious

Bianca Gedenspire Curator

ldquoPassionate about words and images Second Life has allowed

me to give new dimension to my passions poetry and

photography

rdquoExploring new horizons in Second Life I shape my images in

the colors of my feelings and if I appropriate the meaning of

what I look at it with respect and in communion with their

creator then I give them a new light

ldquoMy photos tell a story They reflect the emotions within me

with either happiness or sadness explosion of joy or dismay

They always are created with the same intense passion I like

to mix old with modern or futuristic styles as it is a

continuity because everything feeds on what it was like a

state of soulmdasha timeless landscape My designs are often both

powerful and gentle they open the door to the imagination

ldquoWhen I make a picture time is no longer valid the

constraints no longer exist I am inspired I fly lsquoA watercolor

Pratt said is not only a story It is the translation of a feeling

a memory a state of mindrsquo The same goes for these images

just the translation of a memory a mood and support of a

dream And dreaming is an art dreaming is a necessityrdquo

Kylie Addison Sabra Executive Curator

IWalter GedenspireThe Consummate GentlemanAlthough entirely devoid of any talent I am an art maven haunting galleriesand openings in Second Life In addition I am proud to count many Second Lifeartists among my friends To me the multiplicity of media that artists explore inSecond Life is not only challengingand enlightening but perhaps also itsmost attractive aspect I am proud toplay however small a part in thatartistic life

Actually the one artistic endeavourthat I partake in is dancing I am adancer and manager in theFlapperettes a troupe based in 1920sBerlin And I know firsthand the hardwork that goes into any activity in thearts

My partner Bianca and I areestablishing our own gallery in Paris1900 and to some rdegree we regardour work at the Rose Gallery as a kind of apprenticeship Thank you Kylie Sabrafor giving us that opportunity

Kylie Sabra Walter Gedenspire amp Bianca Gedenspire

I grew up in a happy home filled with music laughter and oodles of

love I studied at the Philadelphia College of Art and the Chester County

Yellow Springs Studio Other studies include 12 years of piano and

extensive study in dance

I strive to create a picture that captures a subjectrsquos soul tells a story

and emulates a feeling Creating special sets from scratch is a passion

for me Ripping apart my sim to create the perfect atmosphere is

nothing new

I like to say I am a protege of Graham Collinson but have developed

into my own style

By the way I have a craving for happiness I hope it is contagious

Bianca Gedenspire Curator

ldquoPassionate about words and images Second Life has allowed

me to give new dimension to my passions poetry and

photography

rdquoExploring new horizons in Second Life I shape my images in

the colors of my feelings and if I appropriate the meaning of

what I look at it with respect and in communion with their

creator then I give them a new light

ldquoMy photos tell a story They reflect the emotions within me

with either happiness or sadness explosion of joy or dismay

They always are created with the same intense passion I like

to mix old with modern or futuristic styles as it is a

continuity because everything feeds on what it was like a

state of soulmdasha timeless landscape My designs are often both

powerful and gentle they open the door to the imagination

ldquoWhen I make a picture time is no longer valid the

constraints no longer exist I am inspired I fly lsquoA watercolor

Pratt said is not only a story It is the translation of a feeling

a memory a state of mindrsquo The same goes for these images

just the translation of a memory a mood and support of a

dream And dreaming is an art dreaming is a necessityrdquo

Kylie Sabra Walter Gedenspire amp Bianca Gedenspire

I grew up in a happy home filled with music laughter and oodles of

love I studied at the Philadelphia College of Art and the Chester County

Yellow Springs Studio Other studies include 12 years of piano and

extensive study in dance

I strive to create a picture that captures a subjectrsquos soul tells a story

and emulates a feeling Creating special sets from scratch is a passion

for me Ripping apart my sim to create the perfect atmosphere is

nothing new

I like to say I am a protege of Graham Collinson but have developed

into my own style

By the way I have a craving for happiness I hope it is contagious

Bianca Gedenspire Curator

ldquoPassionate about words and images Second Life has allowed

me to give new dimension to my passions poetry and

photography

rdquoExploring new horizons in Second Life I shape my images in

the colors of my feelings and if I appropriate the meaning of

what I look at it with respect and in communion with their

creator then I give them a new light

ldquoMy photos tell a story They reflect the emotions within me

with either happiness or sadness explosion of joy or dismay

They always are created with the same intense passion I like

to mix old with modern or futuristic styles as it is a

continuity because everything feeds on what it was like a

state of soulmdasha timeless landscape My designs are often both

powerful and gentle they open the door to the imagination

ldquoWhen I make a picture time is no longer valid the

constraints no longer exist I am inspired I fly lsquoA watercolor

Pratt said is not only a story It is the translation of a feeling

a memory a state of mindrsquo The same goes for these images

just the translation of a memory a mood and support of a

dream And dreaming is an art dreaming is a necessityrdquo

Grand Christmas Ball 2013

Page 8: November 2013 issue

I grew up in a happy home filled with music laughter and oodles of

love I studied at the Philadelphia College of Art and the Chester County

Yellow Springs Studio Other studies include 12 years of piano and

extensive study in dance

I strive to create a picture that captures a subjectrsquos soul tells a story

and emulates a feeling Creating special sets from scratch is a passion

for me Ripping apart my sim to create the perfect atmosphere is

nothing new

I like to say I am a protege of Graham Collinson but have developed

into my own style

By the way I have a craving for happiness I hope it is contagious

Bianca Gedenspire Curator

ldquoPassionate about words and images Second Life has allowed

me to give new dimension to my passions poetry and

photography

rdquoExploring new horizons in Second Life I shape my images in

the colors of my feelings and if I appropriate the meaning of

what I look at it with respect and in communion with their

creator then I give them a new light

ldquoMy photos tell a story They reflect the emotions within me

with either happiness or sadness explosion of joy or dismay

They always are created with the same intense passion I like

to mix old with modern or futuristic styles as it is a

continuity because everything feeds on what it was like a

state of soulmdasha timeless landscape My designs are often both

powerful and gentle they open the door to the imagination

ldquoWhen I make a picture time is no longer valid the

constraints no longer exist I am inspired I fly lsquoA watercolor

Pratt said is not only a story It is the translation of a feeling

a memory a state of mindrsquo The same goes for these images

just the translation of a memory a mood and support of a

dream And dreaming is an art dreaming is a necessityrdquo
