Started on 4/20/2020, the Thunderchild Gallery Workshop is a multi-region residence, workshop and gallery for artists. The basic goal is to build a community and group of RL (real life) & SL (second life) artists learning and supporting each other to make the most of both worlds.  The sites are still under construction and initial inventory.  However, several things are available now.  Key points include...

I am AJ Leibengeist (aka Thunderchild Allen).

I'm an independent mixed media artist in Real Life (RL) and Second Life (SL). My project is the Thunderchild Gallery Workshop (TCGWS) in Second Life and Real Life. I moved my business focus into the virtual world at the start of the pandemic, 4/20/2020.

AJ Leibengeist aka Thunderchild Allen

My life centers around art, music, motorcycles, and bodily repairs from my life collection of adventures. I am a disabled veteran and a member of the New Mexico Veterans Art group for IRL. SL has become my creative escape space for products IRL and SL. My artwork becomes products in both the real and virtual worlds. In SL, I'm a Satyr hybrid who is an artist and philanthropist.

In the late 1960's, I started my engagement in the art and science programs at the Kirk Patrick Planetarium at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds. It was there, I created and sold My first artwork. Over the decades, I received both private and academic training in art, illustration and drafting. I've been able to apply those skills throughout my professional career life. I've created university course materials, architectural and construction plans, network diagrams, clothing, and custom leather and motorcycle gear designs.

I believe that visual art can be a strong communication and emotional experience just as is music, poetry, and prose. Our world and lives are too complex to remain a simpleton, you'd only get kicked to the curb of life. At times I can be a minimalist, seeking to use simple forms to express meaning. Then I can be manically attentive to detail striving for a more complex image. More recently, I've been focusing adapting my recent artwork into textures, prints, and products for SL and RL and striving to match them as much as possible.
