233-saphire-road-dixon -A complex, multi-tiered futuristic rocket ship launches from a lush green landscape, kicking up vast plumes of smoke and fire as it ascends on landing legs turned thrust deflectors. In the foreground, a straight blue road reflects a brilliant star from the sky, cutting through verdant vegetation toward a distant, sprawling cityscape nestled against low hills. The vibrant blue sky features multiple planetary bodies, including a massive crescent planet with detailed surface features partially obscured by low-altitude clouds, a secondary ringed or cratered moon, and a distant third satellite. cover art for Whynne Whiteford novel, acrylic and gouache, 1986
