Overview

Shoshana Epsilon takes extraordinary pictures in Second Life. Primarily a portrait artist, she also has some wonderfully emotive "world" pictures, as well. When taking portraits, she has a way of "capturing the soul" of the avatar that defies explanation. She specializes in "raw" photography, using very little Photoshop post-processing to achieve her goals.

Shoshana's first art display was at SL3B, SecondLife's 3rd Birthday. Now she is the art director for SL4B, where she will be displaying pieces representative of years 3 & 4. [1] She was the featured artist at the Metaverse Gallery Premiere Opening for the UTD (University of Texas at Dallas) Artech display and at Angel Dorei museum. She currently has two in-world art-galleries, one in Steiger and one in Atropolis, and an art maze. She is a featured artist at the Library Gallery, Info Island, which features Phenomenal SL Photography Self Portraits from DeeDee Deepdene, Felony Fabre, Lilith Lunardi, and Shoshana.
