Description
This is of Mother and Father Robot look down on their Son Robot laughing and clapping to a hologram of a cowboy whilst living on the surface of mercury. Yep. When I was growing up, I always wanted to be a speed painter like Bob Ross, but have the outcome and skill of Earl Norem. (Both of these gentlemen were heroes for me.) Alas, I never pursued painting till a couple of months ago. I've had this done for a while with the exception of having the two robots up top painted in. This is the final result. I found that painting is a lot, A LOT, different than the illustration work I'm used to. But, I would say that this is not a bad outcome for a first painting! Tell me what you think.Acrylic on 8"x10" Canvas Art Board.

Thank you! I'm working on my second one in between work and writing. Looks good so far. I might post a running article about it on my personal blog. And then post a journal here to direct everyone that wants to see it.

Hey! That's a great first go! It reminds me of those sci-fi pulp mags too. Original idea that's really fun!

It is a really good job for a first painting!
Especially on the rocks, land and the colour atmosphere in general.
Keep up the good work!!

That is an awesome painting, looks fantastic, and it's very fun. Looks like one of those old school "Amazing Stories" covers.

Man! Anything with robots is going to be excellent! You are a brave soul, I have always wanted to be good at water colors myself but have lacked the courage to let the brush be a brush instead of a pencil or pen. This is great! I look forward to seeing more of this kind of stuff from you!

Thanks! So. When are you going to try your hand at water coloring?

That is a great question! I need to just put some paper down and do it. I think I need to clean my studio or something first, you know, procrastinate, and well, get mentally prepared. Ha!
I have the brushes out and the trays are ready for some water, it is a matter of time I think. I am looking forward to your next painting though!
