This painting was done as a way to add to a current series of paintings that im doing.

This painting is of an ocean scene with a star/sun hovering in the center as wellas 3 bookshelves that stretch to the bottom of the ocean and 1 giant book floating in the distance with a man and his telescope [distorted] sitting on top of the book.

In the sky hovers a transparents square barring a black linear symbol showing a door, upside down stairs and a circle representing a sun.

This painting was partially inspired by a dream and partially inspired by my previous painting "Species Differentiation [Darwinian Broadcast]"

The staircase in the transparent square represents my infatuation with the concept of there being a door to open that takes you into "another world" much like the concept in the movie "The Truman Show".

This is my smallest painting to date.


I have also done a time lapse painting video in which I have condensed 30+ hrs or so of work into around 17 min.

This video includes the following steps of the painting

-Painting
-Brush cleaning
-Photography
-Photo file editing
