This is another painting that I did a while back, 2004 to be precise, so not quite so early as yesterday's painting, but a few years old. I went though a bit of a phase of being interested in retro toy robots and even bought one on eBay which I have an an ornament in my living room. This is a painting of the classic "Smoking Robot" which I put in an imaginary Martian landscape . Of course we now know the sky is actually blue on Mars, but even NASA have been known to practice a bit of artistic licence, they call it science LOL. But a bright red sky does look quite striking I think.
Actually the reason I put this painting up today is because I have just made a high resolution image of it, which is now available as a print from Zazzle.com It can a purchased as a full size print as a small poster (which is quite reasonable in price) or you can also have it printed on canvas and framed in your choice of frame.Actually I think it looks rather nice in a simple wooden frame and probably doesn't need an inner mount (matting) Bearing in mind the original is on stretched canvas. But it also looks nice with a white mount. Though obviously the more one adds the more pricey it gets :)
