Description
"FIFTIES FUTURE"Oil Painting - 48" x 48" - #5 in a Series of 7
The idea of having pollution-free driving high above the landscape in hydrogen powered hover-cars is a reality in "Fifties Future" It's an idealized glimpse into what the people in the 1950's may have envisioned.
"TODAY'S REALITY IS THE STUFF OF YESTERDAY'S DREAMS"
Some Insightful Information to think about:
the rest in this series of Oil paintings are here:
#1 MUSCLE 4 SALE
#2 SALAD BAR
#3 TOYING AROUND
#4 EVERYBODIES BEAUTIFUL
#5 FIFTIES FUTURE
#6 When SuperModels Ruled the World - skipped 4 now, because I wanted to do #7
#7 IT'S A DOG'S WORLD
. . "FIFTIES FUTURE" . .
**March 31st 2008 edit: I just found out Fifties Future was accepted into the
"Spectrum 15" Annual Book - The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art www.spectrumfantasticart.com/eβ¦

I always thought the 50's future would be cool, but some of those women look like they're putting it on a little too much and dyin' hard on the inside. You caught it well I think

I prefer the new generation of future rather than jetsons settings more weapon designs more ways to hack stuff Β technology that is what a nerd punk or any teenager dreams of robots don't look so bulky look like a android human yet it pretty cool

There's something about this kind of thing that I'll always love floating antigravity cars looking like Buicks and girls in spacesuits with bubble helmets, when I was a kid in the 60's I believed there would be a city on the moon. This is so beautiful in every way, Norman Rockwell and The Jetsons...I love it!

All your stuff is really unique and amzing! I am a local musician and I have a very electronic meets classic rock sound I this would be such an awesome album cover. I was wondering If would allow me to use this on my next CD? Let me know and keep up the good work!

My god, so many 50s concept cars. This reminds me of the concept art for the jetsons.

yeah, I did lots of research on concept cars of the fifties, (( overpriced cars that they couldn't possibly make for the general public ))
