This is a very simple digital painting. I drew it freehanded in Photoshop using a Wacom tablet and a couple different brush styles. I used touch of Gaussian blur to give it a glow and the glass distoration filter on the sky for that subtle splotchy pattern. This image represents the notion that instead of being a global community, we'll go universal. In the process, we'll meet a number of new life forms and be introduced to a wider spectrum of "beauty." Also, the classic cheesecake poster will never go out of style.
