Today's Second Life Flickr Pick: "EPIPHAINEIN" Creates Incredibly Creative & Zany Riffs on Biden, Edward Hopper’s "Nighthawks" & Beyond!

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

EPIPHAINEIN has the best photostream, I haven’t a clue where to start, he is so inventive.

Here is detail from “Sunday Funnies with Joe” — see the whole amazing thing here.

And he delivers, not just with his persuasive pics, but the dialog even sounds like President Biden. I want more comics.

EPIPHAINEIN explains his name on his Flickr profile: “The word ‘epiphany’ comes from the Greek word ‘epiphainein’, which means ‘to make known’, ‘to manifest’, or ‘to shine upon’.” Well, he manifests humor, an appreciation for art, and a love of movies. And that’s not all

“I’ve Just Met a Girl Named Maria” captures the push and pull attraction at the heart of West Side Story with two young people in love with each other whose loyalty demands enmity, not love. I wonder when someone will finally resolve Romeo and Juliet by having their love settle a feud rather than the feud end their lives.

EPIPHAINEIN owns the fabulous “Nighthawks” Second Life recreation where so many people, including me, have shot their own appreciation of Edward Hopper’s inimitable painting. However, this takes the cake because it’s an homage to that great painting and to the film Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, which is just perfect.

EPIPHAINEIN is a creative, inventive, humorous, and important Second Life artist. Why important? He reminds us of Second Life’s possibilities, that we can create more than the merely beautiful, but also the comic, the venal (he’s shoplifting, the magical, and whatever else he can dream up.
