Fully Operational - upcycled vintage painting

“Fully Operational”

Imagine living with a planet destroyer being built within your own solar system? You would wait each day to hear two ominous words : fully operational.

The original vintage painting is a good example of mass produced artwork. A skilled artist has skillfully learned painting techniques, and is painting “a” landscape from their imagination. (Rather than painting a specific place / landscape they are looking at and painting what they see, which would be unique every time.) It’s a completely valid style of art, but landscapes like this have been mass produced to the point that the artists don’t even sign their names to their work. Paintings like this are discarded and seen as valueless because they are not unique.  So I enjoy giving pieces like this a little fun so they can be appreciated again as something unique and new.
