This art derived from thinking about how it would work if an interstellar species visited a world where the science is basically on the level of magic. What would the early warning look like? Anywho, hope you like it. No AI here.
Long after their gods disappeared into the sands of time, their children frolicked on the worlds left behind. Peace had finally found mankind.
This is my first digital art in a minute, be gentle.
This doodle was inspired by Flock of Seagulls’ ‘Space Age Love Song’ from 1982, and Bumbu rum. The first stanza is, like, “I saw your eyes, and you made me smile, for a little while, I was falling in love.” I interpreted it into this fan art / original piece. I’ve said before I’m unapologetic about artwork involving eyes, as they are the very cliche ‘windows to the soul’. I’ll shut up now and let it speak for itself.
I’m truly sorry I’ve not done anything in the last couple of days. I’m working through proposals at work (to pay for my art!) and skin cancer to boot, but last night at 3ish, I made this video of recent art (going back to October (ish). I’ll get creative again soon! I kind of want to do a full length video of all the artwork I’ve done, but it would be significantly longer than 2 minutes – more along the lines of an hour. Maybe over the holiday weekend.
I didn’t want to let the first day of a new year go by without creating some artwork, so here you go. It was originally named ‘Flight’, but I used that yesterday. So I solved the conundrum and changed the name to the song I had on repeat while I was creating it; because one should credit where one draws inspiration, and it’s as much a part of the total package for me.
Now, for legal reasons and all, these two things are not associated, nor am I riding coat-tails. I’m merely sharing what inspired me. The song is ‘Unleashed’ by Two Steps from Hell (one of my favorite groups). The composer is Thomas Bergersen, and Merethe Soltvedt provides the vocalization. I visualize the birds taking off at 2:50, or here:
Remember when you were a kid, and you pretended you were on a rocket ship or airplane as you tried to swing higher and higher? That’s the feeling I’m going for with this. Whether or not I’ve achieved it is up to you, as that is the purpose of art. It’s a fantasy piece, to end a not so great year and bring in a new one full of hope, happiness, and dreams. I could explain the piece but I’m hoping you get it without that bit of tediousness. Happy New Year.
In all of humankind’s explorations and raging against the borders of the unknown, there has been one thing it has never been able able to resist – the selfie. From the first transistors that allowed us to capture our location for our aggrandizement on social media, it has also been our downfall. Many have gone over cliffs, bridges, retaining walls, and railings in pursuit of the ultimate presentation of self. But no one has gone as far as that person in 2162, who, after calculating the risks and minimizing the egregious lapse in judgement, took a deep breath, uncoupled their helmet, and took the ultimate selfie. The death report listed the cause as ‘suspicious’ but ‘definitely not a problem with the helmet locking mechanism.’
Note, I’m not impugning the ladies with this image, it could just as easily be a man, and more than likely would be. I just find women to be easier on the eyes as far as art is concerned.
This is a doodle playing on the question “what if our universe were just an atom in a bigger thing, like a sewage pipe?” – it would explain a lot 🙂 I took some previously used elements and combined them in a different way, so, yeah. The gardener, an Android whose head provides life for the fruits of her garden, tends the various seeds of life in her garden. Space within space I guess is the theme.
This is a take on the lunar or Mars landings, but in this case, what if a dandelion seed was a lander? What if it was touching down on an unexplored world? After all, we’re all like planets drifting in the cosmos, our circles of friends are our solar systems, our neighborhoods, provinces, states, and nations are our galaxies. I like to think when we meet someone new it’s like exploring a new worlds, full of wonder, danger, and heartbreak, because it is. This painting is an expression of that on a micro-scale. Otherwise it’s new digital art that makes no sense.
I wanted to see if I could create the feeling of being inside a space helmet, without creating an actual helmet. I think it was a success.
Also, if you wonder what it looks like in the creation process, here’s a screenshot.
Basically, there’s a lot of illusion in the creation of art, especially digital art. This is a top down perspective, but some things are shrunk others grown, and placing objects just as they would occur in life, such as the four screens, don’t always give the best artistic visual. Anyway, thought you may like to know what’s behind the mask.
Solar Swim. Yeah, not the greatest title but better than ‘untitled.’ It started out as a #woman swimming #underwater – then I thought “what if #water was #space ? So then there’s the relative freedom of #zerogravity and the constrictive nature of our bodies. #art #modern #digital #progressive & #new
Here’s a closeup.
“Kle’itu led the #offworlder to what loosely translated in her language as ‘the #ruin of man’, or, as the strangers had mistranslated, ‘wealth of the people.’ Far out in the #desert it lay, where the mother-ground bleached herself before the twin suns. It was a ritual for the seed-carriers to survive the ancient #temple – and doing so would earn them a place in Ginosean society. Why the offworlder was so interested, Kle’itu did not know.”
I saw something interesting yesterday that fed into #art I’ve been doing for a while, called #bodyscape #artwork – a form of #fantasyart which I decided to combine with #scifi
I actually finished it last night but it was late, so I rendered it this morning.
