<lyco:RichardHescox:1.0> 1940's retro sci-fi style painting, a beautiful woman in a jumpsuit and her male human bodyguard are exploring the ruins of a deserted ancient city on an alien planet when they come upon an open plaza with a weirdly menacing and bizarre monumental statue at the center of the plaza, the statue is tall and glowing and vaguely organic, the woman and the man stand in awe of the statue's representation of the intelligence and mysteriousness of its makers, the plaza is surrounded by decayed and crumbling ruins of what were once magnificent and weird buildings, the painting should fill the entire image without any borders, Ed Emsh, Virgil Finlay, Norman Saunders, Hubert Rogers, Earle Bergey, Kelly Freas
