Description
This image has been in my head for ages, but it was Vee's cyclist that finally showed me a possible way out...
Strongly influenced by album cover designer Storm Thorgerson (Hipgnosis), animator Terry Gilliam and cartoonist Kliban, who all permanently bent my brain. Thanks!
Terrain created in GeoControl 2, Vue 7.4 Infinite, cropping and signature in PSP.

Great scene and lighting. Well done…
fantastic surreal... bravo
Hah! That's way cool.
the wonderful thing about surrealism is that it has its own self-contained vision & logic & rightness, and when we're inside it, all is correct...this makes perfect sense inside the image: A strange desert-scape, with those monitors as if they're telling us we're not someplace else (showing us 'someplace else' to rub it in, lol); and your own face, stunned, as if you're not only trapped in the landscape, but you're trapped in the box as well (!). Well, we're all trapped in this strange & playful vision. And the feet are really done well, as they stand there without a second thought in this late-day bleak landscape. This is bleak but also fun, and very well done! I am so overdue here, I'm utterly embarrassed; but at least I'm opening the door, and I'll be back my next session to comment on several more. A strange & wholly natural piece of boggling surrealism, with your usual sense of deftness & skill & humor. I really like this! I'll have to call up Magritte and tell him to get over here quick...
WOW...Gorgeous surreal artwork, super creative image, loved it a lot!
