"The Little Symbiont" - Original painting in acrylics
Yesterday I posted the Android Portrait I did in commission for my collector --> link.
He not only wanted me to portrait himself but his whole family. So here is The Little Symbiont, a portrait of his 12 years old daughter.
This painting was a pain. It was very difficult to weave a child's face into some wicked machinery structure without making it look either ridiculous or brutal...

Tip!
Thank you @trumpman! And thanks for another tip!
don't mention it :) Slowly my sp is growing, hopefully in a couples of months I will be able to drop you votes worth of at least 0.5-1 $ :*
Another brilliant Artwork, your collector is very privileged man to have Android portraits done for his whole family, and no, it neither looks ridiculous nor brutal, but the innocence expression of the child's face is very well captured, and the whole subject sets a futuristic impression. Outstanding work.
Thanks @beatseb!
very well done! I've never heard of painting on fiberboard.
Thanks @allstarrunner! I paint most of my small formats on these boards.

@tipU - send tips by writing tip! in the comment, get share of the profit :)Amazing piece of work, @gric. Very impressed.
Ok, I can see how this is much more challenging...better to have the child's picture not smiling (not even a lip curl) here....so it looks emotionless and more android.
Up-Voted for making something difficult look easy.Well done good Sir!
Thank you @dj123!
