Meet Arella Marie Deerfield
CREATING BEAUTIFUL VIRTUAL SPACES
I like having a cute little avatar, and I’m proud to be a practicing pagan witch. I reside in Canada alongside my wife, who’s my rock both in real life and in Second Life. Living with a degenerative muscular condition that keeps me mostly bedbound hasn’t stifled my spirit. In fact, it led me to discover the boundless opportunities for connection and creativity in Second Life.
With a background in interior design, I’ve found fulfillment in crafting virtual spaces that exude warmth and character. Beyond design, I’m deeply passionate about various forms of art, including painting, music creation, digital art, and fashion design. I also strive to support causes close to my heart, such as animal rescue and wildlife rehabilitation. While I’ve explored different roles in Second Life, including DJing, event hosting, and KittyCats auctioneering, interior design remains my true calling.

YEARS ON THE GRID
MILLION IDEAS I STILL HAVE TO DO…

Why be little?
I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been approached by random guys who caused problems for me while I was trying to work on a project for a client. My block list is massive. As a lesbian woman in real life, I was extra fed up with being sexualized by guys all the time. I’ve always loved cute things, and was jealous of how adorable so many littles in Second Life were, and the things they had. I decided to stick with my kiddo avatar about 80% of the time.
The problem was fixed! The harassment stopped, I enjoyed how cute I looked, I was treated nicer by strangers, and I started having a lot more fun. I still speak to my clients professionally and take my job very seriously, but being little has changed how enjoyable Second Life is to me… by a lot!
