Hard E'scape

Making Space

I normally don't do paintings of my design projects, but since this is the last one and a thesis about art, I figured I would give it a shot....
This is the backyard, looking northwest towards downtown oakland, showing the landscape flowing beneath the floating box of the studio...

Needs a title, any suggestions?

The subject matter's a mix of

ancient mysticism, mollusks, and space toy manuals,

so its a little confused.

Just to Clarify...

For all the notes and descriptions I've wrote to make sense, you have to read the blog from the bottom up. That's the way it posts and so far I haven't figured out how to make it do the opposite.
