Greetings my fellow hive aliens!
I made this digital painting back in 2010. I refreshed it to give it a different style and a more magical space aura.
This was a completely digital piece, so I started with a sketch which I did with my tablet back then.
I tokenized the artwork in NFTShowroom
I started to lay colors loosely to start giving the piece some shape. I also started to shadow/highlight some areas and made a simple multi-colored gradient background.
I started to work on the grass patch. I wanted the robot from outer space to appear as if it was walking through nature. I threw in some butterflies to add to the scene.
I worked on the inking with a thick line, outlining the whole piece.
... and finally finished the grass to make it appear as if the robot's "feet" are beyond the grass which is closer to the spectator's view.
This is where I left off my piece back in 2010. I really like the minimalist paint and the simple shadowing and lighting I did back then, but as I said before, I wanted to give it a more mystical and space aura, plus some more detail to make it POP!
Forward 10 years, 2020, Hum updated his robot and has found himself in the same situation as when he was younger.
The background of memories started to blur out.
Ten years later, Hum found another iris flower while wandering through mystical spatial forest lands. It made him remember old times and imagined life outside the robot. He profoundly questioned life and nature as he kept gazing through the light of the iris.
The smokey space haze slowly started to descend, blur the surroundings and fill the air with star crystals. Hum realized he was living in a dream, but there was still way more to discover in this vast ocean of what he called space reality.
As he came back through space and time, Hum traveled through an eternal flow of emotions that reminded him of all his loved ones, his friends, family, everyone he'd ever known, and everything he'd ever lived. He remembered what it was to smile, and stopped frowning for the first time in years. Tired, he headed home, exhausted, but satisfied and thankful for the long years he had lived frowning, but alive.
