But when I came across an article in a Nat Geo about odd ice formations in the arctic, I thought... well, some of these must exist elsewhere... So, I transposed some of the more interesting ones to a slightly lower gravity, more dramatically lit enviroment. I'm particularly happy with the purple bounce light. (14X18 on canvas, Acrylic)

I keep coming back to this one, adding things, removing others... until I get a composition I really like... I still think it's a bit too "busy." (14X18 on canvas, Acrylic)

Vaugely based on a story by Murray Leinster I read once as a kid, about a woman archeologist who discovers the key to unlocking an alien race's language: the periodic table of elements. I've taken a lot of liberties with the original story, making the heroine east indian... (Does anyone else think Tori on BSG is the hottest girl on that show? It CAN'T be just me...) and portraying the ruins as a bit more "techie" than they were described in the story. (14X18 on canvas, Acrylic)

(14X18 on canvas, Acrylic) This looks strikingly like the character from farscape. One of my favourite sci-fi shows. You impress me alot with your landscape abilities. Great stuff.

(A solid compliment! Yay!) Also, sorry if the colors seem a bit weak on these. They're too large to fit on my scanner, and doing digital photos seems to leave them a little bland... (I'll work on it.)
