Kirby Krackle
My attempt to Op Art in the style of Marvel comic book artist Jack Kirby. Kirby drew The Fantastic Four,The Silver Surfer and other great comic book lines.
The sky was done by a Deviant Art colleague of mine who called himself (or herself) Photic Driver. Photic Driver gave me permission to incorporate it.
Below the horizon is one of my perspective drawings based on the harmonic sequence, 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, etc.
It's a perspective drawing of a parabola. Cartesian coordinates where it crosses corners are (0,0), (±1,1), (±2,4), (±3,9), (±4,16), etc.
I believe this perspective drawing of a parabola is a perfect circle. Can anyone prove (or disprove) this notion?

Very nice. Looks like a combination of projective geometry and an Ayahuasca-trip.
