Classical oil painting in the academic realist tradition of 19th-century. An asteroid floats in outer space. It is in the centre of the image and around it are a few other scattered asteroids. Has a shape like an iceberg, but looks like a piece of Earth that has been ripped away. There is green grass and some remnants of street pavement on the asteroid, but its main feature is a tall and narrow house. The house is painted bright green and looks like one of the tall houses from Jellybean Row in St. John's Newfoundland. There are remnants of other coloured houses (just a fraction of a wall) on either side but the only intact house on the asteroid is the green one, which takes up almost all of its entire width. Looking out of one of the upstairs windows is a boy of about seven years old. He has brown hair and green eyes and has an expression of wide-eyed wonder on his face. Some of the other windows in the house are lit from inside like from electric lights. The asteroid is like an iceberg with a crust on top where the house sits, but with rock tapering off as it goes down below the house. There are other asteroids visible in the distance some of which are empty and others of which contain houses on them as well (also with some lights on inside and people looking out some of the windows). The asteroids appear to be floating in empty space with a mostly black and empty background with several tiny dots of stars visible. The light source illuminating the houses and asteroids is unknown but from somewhere behind the viewer so that everything looks clear. The green house is the primary focus of the image and the house should be obviously and visibly green. Visible impasto on the green house and the asteroid it sits on, subtle craquelure and canvas weave, varnish sheen, museum quality,
An oil painting featuring a floating green house on an asteroid in deep space. The main green two-story house stands on a large, rugged asteroid covered in sparse grass, with other smaller houses on separate asteroids scattered in the background. The black sky is filled with distant stars and a few other cratered asteroids. Two children are visible looking out of the lit windows of the green house, which has a small porch with stairs leading to a dark front door. The lighting is surreal, with warm light emanating from the house windows against the dark, cold vacuum of space.
