Description so yeh this painting of a robot i drew on a huge piece of cardbord in work, brought home and then decided to paint it all.
its about 5 foot tall by 2 foot wide and created using acrylic paint and various other bits of crap.
This photo doesnt really show u the size but its just to give you an example.

Dont mock his tophat btw, he has warned me of this....

hellknite In reply to ShadowFoxxx [2008-05-26 08:26:30 +0000 UTC]

hehe it is a balance between technology and nature.... a robot standing in the middle of a field and he also has a tophat just incase.... this is why

MereInsanity [2008-05-23 07:40:03 +0000 UTC]

Your creativity astounds me. I love the how you let your canvas keep it's imperfections and character (ie, the naked cardboard strips, from what I assume was a tape spot?) and use bits and pieces of whatever. Keep it up

hellknite In reply to MereInsanity [2008-05-25 07:30:03 +0000 UTC]

thanks for your comment yeh those brown spots are all bits of tape, and he even has a recycling logo on his head that i painted green

very cool! I love the shadows, it really gives the painting depth. And I love that you did it on a cardboard box.

And the antenna poking out through the top hat.
