It looks like a fucked up oil painting. Good. It’s not. It’s a trad-digital mixed media piece. The blue strokes and swirls look like an unfinished Van Gogh painting. But I selected part of them and placed them overtop another drawing I made a while back called “Ich Self?” The swirls come from Luna, the professional marker drawing I made of a picture of a model. John Marin is somewhat of an inspiration here.
I titled this piece a long title. I used to be a landscaper and I wanted to imagine what it would be like to be a seascaper, if there is such a thing. Anyway, I made it up. I imagined him to be rather uncontrollable, like the rest of nature. So this piece looked like a seascape to me. And the uncontrolled part is the superimposed strokes of blue. The seascaper is more of a spirit, rather than physical, hence the swirling strokes.
The big elliptical shape on the horizon in the sky I imagined to be a colony transporter of a selection of people transported from one planet to another. I think a galactic collision was going on at where they were from, so their planet needed to be evacuated. They found this alien earth like pearl and decided to unknowingly disturb the native alien seascaper by making it a home.
I guess the seascaper will have to split into multiple ghosts equivalent to the number of space farers on the craft and haunt them. I guess the ghosts will have to follow the offsprings for generations to come in order to “even” the score for invading the once peaceful alien planet. I’m sure a good science fiction story could be outlined from such a spawn of rambling.
