205-orbital-factory-dixon – A sophisticated technological concept painting depicting a massive industrial orbital manufacturing facility in low Earth orbit. The intricately detailed vessel features glowing green optical apertures, dense structural scaffolding, and a prominent cylindrical docking port at its bow. A mass driver delivers exotic new products and materials to other habitats. Below the installation, the curved horizon of a blue, cloud-swept Earth stretches across the lower frame, backlit by a brilliant, glaring Sun situated in the upper right quadrant of the deep starfield. Acrylic and gouache, 1984
