Sometimes I wonder how an alien landscape may be like on another planet. Could it be perceived by human senses like on earth? Would it make sense to us? Would there be life as we understand it? An equivalent of a tree? A cloud...?
I always found it odd that the SETI project is based on the assumption that intelligent Extra Terrestrials (ETs) would use radio waves like we do. Many assume intelligent ETs to be similar to us, because that is the only intelligent life we know of (or so we think). In reality, there is no way of knowing how intelligent ETs may be like. Intelligent ETs may be so vastly different from what we are used to that we may not even detect that they are there, observing us...
Anyway, in this surreal illustration I depict an alien environment that can be experienced by humans. It is alien, strange, and mysterious.

I'm a fan of this artist, and I think this is one of his better works. I like the slim alien figure and the gradients of the sunset. It gives it an otherwordly feeling.
@mike odom Thank you Mike. I always find it interesting what other people see and how they interpret my artwork. Sometimes this can be quite a revelation to me, something I never thought of, or noticed myself.
There is something about a long , very long passage of time in this pianting.The figure gazes the sunset as if in deep thought and perhaps contemplating a great loss or event.This painting has substance and deep impact on the eye and mind if you can feel it.
This strikes me as awesome, eternal in time, great concept
THE CONCEPT PIANTING IS EXCELLENT.THE ABILITY TO MATERIALIZE THE VERY THOUGHT INTO HIS WORK IS OBVIOUS.
I wish I could go to space, and this pic makes me feel like Im in space. I really like your alien, it brings out the characteristics of life on other planets , if their was any. Great pic.

One word to describe this photo: Awesome. Simply awesome.
you know? your questions are just like mine. I like the drawing but I personally believe that it looks a bit artifitial to be a sunset. I do like the mixture o colors and the combination of them all thogether , but you had better works than this. I sorry if I said to straight forward. I admire your work since I found your gallery work.
