This is somebody's (don't know who; it showed up on line) rendition of a combination of a Hubble photo and a really pretty 'city' out there somewhere.
When my sister Mary saw it she immediately told me to do one of my 'high texture' paintings of it.
Well, that led me to look again at the photo - and my thought was, 'That's PHI in the SKY!'
The Hives our folk have colonized in the stars have to look like something, you know. Given that they're originating at Phi of Northwest, chances are at least some of them are going to resemble it ... one would think.
So I think I'll leave the alabaster cities to others and go for the gold. NASA puts out some great photos ... it will be fun to give them a search for the one(s) that start bells ringing in my head and use them as inspiration for the interpretive painting(s) I have in mind.
Exactly when I'll be able to have the time to actually do the painting(s) I have no idea at the moment. I've got a bunch of horse sketches to get done, two books to finish writing and merging (about halfway through with that little project), and yada yada stuff like shifts to fill to finance everything else.
But the idea is firmly planted and I can vision it, so eventually we'll have our Phi in the Sky.
