Gloria J Zucaro's "Fone Home"

This is my entry into the Paint Party Friday site for November 9th.
There are many wonderful artists displaying their artwork every week, so surf on over and get inspired.  
I am also asking all of you to go to the Daily Paintworks Hurricane Relief Auction and pick a painting to buy.  ALL the proceeds go directly to help the victims of the hurricane.  The auctions of paintings have raised over $5,000. so far.
Well, here it is.  I finally decided how I wanted to finish my fantasy/sculpture painting.  A fellow artist, Corrine Murphy gave me the neat idea of having my "contraption" landing and making a crater, so voila!   Then I made the planet look as if it has atmosphere, added Saturn back in and I am happy with my final result.  Click on the image to enlarge.

  15. Extraordinary, Gloria. Good for you to tout an organization that allows ALL proceeds to go to relief. I have just checked out some very well known relief organizations where the CEOs make mega-bucks, well into 6 figures.
