Description LEFT=ORIGINAL, RIGHT=INVERTED.
I was inspired by AtomiccircuS's inverted drawings . The blending of colors isn't the best, but I figured I'd try this out. It turned out alright. I was quite happy that my peers and teacher liked this.

I'd be interested to see how an Earth would look like with orange oceans and purple land >_>

It's the apocalypse. The purple could be radiation or something, I suppose.

Hmm. Luckily it's all fictitious/theoretical as of now. Or metaphorical, if you'd like. It goes with my painting, too. The earth as we know it is green and blue, but inverted or the opposite, the world is in chaos.

What if it is in a parallel universe? O:

IridescentCatalyst In reply to PictureOnProgress [2016-05-11 02:26:14 +0000 UTC]

Well, the multiverse theory says that it is. It'd be a terrible place to be. But then again, who knows? Perhaps the orange and purple could be harmless and that's just how it is. We just think it's weird because we're used to green and blue. There's the idea of how every one of us could interpret colors differently, so for certain people, an inverted earth could be what they see, but they describe it as green and blue because of society. Also, there could be, and probably is, a planet that is orange and purple somewhere in our own universe.

Yep. We know a lot, but also so little. However, there's a lot on earth we don't know, too, especially the deep seas.

Well, some of it isn't, but it's crazy to think how the closest thing to us is the furthest, in a sense, too. Reminds me of a recent video I saw: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gxz-IB…

They're good. They can be funny, informational, and/or deep. That's why I like a lot of YouTubers.

Never heard of them. I watch quite a few YouTubers, though. It's one of the first things I do when I get home.

One of the first things I do when I get home is, usually, to play some games

IridescentCatalyst In reply to PictureOnProgress [2016-05-12 22:46:11 +0000 UTC]

Ah. I don't play games often these days since I don't get new games and have other interests and tasks. I do watch some gamers on YouTube, though.

Also, I like how we got all the way here with this conversation and you started with something completely different.

Ah. Well, maybe some people don't want to talk about it. Or they don't want to read the block of text and questions. Or maybe it's just unlcukiness. Who knows? If you bump the thread, I'm sure it'll continue to get replies.

Perhaps I may have thrown that in the wrong forum.
But I can think of more subjects that are less uncomfortable to talk about.

This is really interesting. I like both of them, but the one that captures my attention the most was the one on the right as it looked so homely ^^

IridescentCatalyst In reply to Comments4You [2016-02-26 13:32:54 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Well, they're the same painting. The one on the right is the result of using software to invert the colors of the left, which is the original. So of course the right makes more sense because it was the end goal.
