[ Image description: Play on Mucha’s classic Art Nouveau work, “Terre” from his Elements series. It features Parvati Holcomb, sitting in profile with an oversized wrench over her shoulder. A stylized crescent frames her, showing the Spacer’s Choice Moon Man face flanked by a series of Spacer’s Choice green and gold ship logos on either side in decreasing size. A sprig of Emerald Vale ivy extends from behind her in an arc over her head. In the background behind her there is a stylized, layered landscape: the Vale volcano and a gear (in place of the sun that Mucha had put in his piece), the silhouetted skyline of Edgewater, and a tree and rocky escarpment. Below and in the background is a stream with tall rocks on either side, and there are two stylized puffballs on either side of the picture. The entire image is enclosed in an Art Nouveau frame featuring stained glass windows above and the word “TERRE” in a stylized frame, backed by images of wheat and some laurel-like greenery. End ID. ]
Yes, Max, that is French.
I went back to Twitter to find out when I’d actually started (and stopped) this work, thinking it had been a year ago. Nope: more than that. I had had grand hopes of doing a series of five images at the time, but that’s likely not going to happen if it takes me over a year to finish just one of them.
The stained glass design is actually by Bobby Hernandez, from his amazing designs for windows in Byzantium: https://bobbyhernandez.artstation.com/projects/zAGRRQ – although I did mod it by dropping the Unreliable in there.
