Ars Virtua, an online-only artists’s collective with a gallery space in Second Life, recently advertised an artist in residency for World of Warcraft. They just announced that they’ve selected two artists: Tom Betts and Alison Mealey. There’ll be a “meet-and-greet” where we can all go say hi to the artists within a few weeks, apparently. And yes, there’ll likely be more residencies in WoW for artists in future. Oh, and Ars Virtua also has an artists’ guild on WoW – on a US server. Such a pity servers aren’t truly international.

It’ll be interesting to see what projects Tom Betts and Alison Mealey come up with!
