Playing with paint: Girl and an Altair 8800
So playing with a bit more paint I thought I’d have a go at drawing something from my head. I’d just been reading the Diamond Age and had vague ideas along the lines of drawing Nell with the primer. Didn’t turn out quite that way (just went with what seemed to be working). So instead here’s a painting a girl with a backdrop of the circuit board from an Altair 8800 (one of the first publicly available computers for consumers). It’s kind of silly, but I quite liked how it turned out.
this is really good picture. i think the style of this really complements how you work - if you get what I mean!

[...] on from Girl with an Altair 8800 here’s another vaguely Diamond Age inspired piece. I’m quite enjoying doing paintings [...]
