This one started as a pure abstract, but as more detail was added I started thinking about aliens and how they are usually depicted as either quite featureless or brutish. What if they are stunningly beautiful, with lots of sensors on their heads, multiple eyes perhaps and other senses that we don’t have? What if lockdown has turned me slightly crazy! Don’t worry if you see it as a pure abstract or something else, that is fine. There are lots of metallic details in this painting. It is quite small and would best suit a small wall, possibly in a modern home or apartment. It is ready to hang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This abstract is no longer available, sorry.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n
