If you ever wondered, the planets I’m working on now are Neptune, Mercury, and Jupiter. These three are the planets that I figured would be the hardest to create concepts for. Although Mercury is an interesting god the planet is one of the hardest to study being the closest to the sun and possesses a rather dull look. Neptune ok the other hand possesses a beautiful blue color. But the blue conflicts with the background of blue I typically use in every painting I have. Jupiter possesses many alluring attributes but yet again the concepts of the god made it difficult to create a composition. Jupiter is the king of the planets also known as Zeus the god of thunder. Lightning bolts are easy to paint but cutting the composition in the shape of a zig zag isn’t as appealing as it might sound. After a few weeks of contemplating compositional layouts I’ve settled on a design desision for each planet. Color options will be considered moving forward followed by beginning each painting.
