Description
First in a little two part series for theluminarium 's 26th release Depth.I was lucky enough to be the featured artist this time round and this piece was a featured piece! You can check out the full release here: theluminarium.net/v3/exhibits.…

This is a collaboration with ErikShoemaker who made the sexy portal you see in the middle. Also a big thanks to the guys at Lum who gave some great tips and ideas along the way, it wouldn't have got to this state without you guys!

Busy busy busy... spent the past year or so working on my Master's thesis which I, finally, could turn in. Suddenly, all the stress is gone and I'm kind of afraid that I don't know where to spend all my free time on
How about you?

Ah yeah, are you happy with the end result? I have mainly just been working, and not finding as much time to do art as I used to (which frustrates me, but there we are). Maybe you should use all this free time to blitz out a load of new pieces!

Challenge accepted! Gonna paint some stuff now!
Also, yeah, kind of happy with the final result. Got the "passed with distinction" on my certificate, so at least I have that going for me

You are not the first person to say that. Although I think Erik's style inspiration for the portal was more Eve online.

I guess it's because of the water reflection background I used, e.g., stargate-project.de/stargate/d…
and that might have been subconsciously startgate inspired
