Through the mists of myth and legend come creativity - Lacy Muircastle reporting ....

Life is made interesting by myth and legend, it adds depth and colour to an otherwise bland world.  Apelles Luna owner of Lunaria, although very real (albeit virtually) has that mythical feel about her.  Her avatar is ethereal in appearance and that feeling of ethereality transcends into the aura she transmits.   She goes by the name Luna, which in Mythology is one of the names of Artemis the moon goddess.

In real life 'Apelles' was a Greek painter, who was court painter to Philip II of Macedonia and his son, Alexander the Great. Notable works included a portrait of Alexander, an allegorical picture of Calumny, and a painting of Aphrodite rising from the sea. Though no copies of his works survive, in antiquity he was considered the greatest of Greek painters.

What has this to do with Luna?  Well everything actually.  Luna is a highly talented highly creative content maker in Second Life, so clearly that is why the name Apelles resounded with her.




Lunaria is the name of her brand and she creates everything from Castles and paintings to Steampunk Dirigibles and everything else in-between.
