September 8, 2026
An oddly shaped, three-story house sits at the end of some steps with a city skyline in the background. The sky is murky crimson, with a yellow sun shining through the haze. On its roof are a few antennae. The sunlight gleams off the buildings in the distance. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

An irregularly shaped underground chamber, enclosed by gray concrete. A dark industrial doorway is built into a blue-gray wall, surrounded by thick green pipes. A fluorescent green-white light hangs above the door, which sits on a small rusty metal platform with cross-braced supports. Below, the chamber is partially flooded. To the right, shelves built into the wall support a rusty greenish cabinet with vents, and a brown box with an orange question mark on it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A large, rectangular, harsh-looking face mounted on a pole. The face is frowning, craggy, and looks like it is made from tarnished greenish metal. In place of eyes, it has camera lenses. It stands against a mottled neon yellow-green sky, with a blurry city skyline in the background. A tiny red light glows near its upper left corner, while two dark birds perch on top. You probably have one of these in your neighborhood. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A dark, squat robot wanders across a mottled blue-gray space. Its rounded body ends in several ragged pointed flaps, and a large pale blue glass visor dominates the upper right side. A person is dimly visible through the visor. Small orange and yellow indicator lights glow along its top, while a bright white circular lamp shines on the front. A yellow-and-black hazard stripe and tiny turquoise buttons sit on its front and side. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

September 1, 2026
A dark, crumbling castle rises from a shadowy blue-green landscape. The sun blazes behind it at the base, casting a blur of yellow light into the sky and reflecting off the side of the castle. A small arched doorway near the base glows bright green. In front, a winding gray path curves toward the foreground, the greenish light from the doorway reflecting off it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A large blue-green fish with a shiny black eye is seen through a giant round porthole window. There are dark skyscrapers and scattered yellow and turquoise windows behind it. The interior of wherever the viewer is is painted hot magenta and has an open round service hatchway in the wall; several thick green, yellow, and purple cables curl out of it. A heavy round door is open next to the hatchway. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A large boulder carved to resemble a snowman sits in a meadow under a bright yellow-green sky.

A large, hulking monster shambles through a meadow at night. A low fog hangs over the meadow. Behind the monster, in the distance, rises a mountain range, illuminated by a full moon. The moon sits in a glowing iridescent-green sky. A white glowing halo hovers above the monster's head. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

August 28, 2026
A scarecrow-like figure stands in a barren space under a yellowish-pink sky. It looks like a rough cross wearing a thin blue shirt through which the sunlight is shining through. Where its head would be is a black boxy gadget of indeterminate purpose. The gadget has a large green screen or lens, with smaller screens, lights, and dials on it. Wires lead down from the box. A few birds perch on the figure, and more circle in the sky above. In the lower right of the drawing, the sun blazes against the horizon. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

August 27, 2026
A glowing green potato-shaped craft with three landing pods sits on uneven rocky ground, against a dark green sky. On the lower right is an open hatchway revealing a blazing white interior, a ladder leading down. Covering most of the craft are eyes of all different colors, angles, and sizes. Sticking out of the craft are three thin, smoking chimneys. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A dark greenish space. Three dark, faceless people are standing around, staring at a glowing image in front of them: a bright yellow-green rectangle in which is shown an unsettling figure wearing a suit and tie. The figure has a grinning, skeletal face. The rectangle has blurry edges and looks like it is projected on a wall in front of them. Two of them have windup clock keys sticking out of their backs. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A slightly raised orifice sits on a rocky surface under a heavy, starless night sky. Greenish light and smoke rise from the orifice. On both sides of it are two railings attached to green poles with yellow lights on top, like those you find at the entrances of New York City subway stations. They are casting a yellowish glow. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A figure wearing a gray suit and tie strides through a blue, starry night. The figure is carrying a cane and raising a top hat, turning to smile at the viewer.

A small humanoid machine stands in a bright green space. The humanoid is a tarnished coppery color, and has a large, lopsided metal head with bolts and seams in it. There isn't much to its face other than two round holes, one of which has a greenish glass lens in it. Its body is the size of its head. In its left hand, it is holding a mirror, which it is peering at. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A person walks across a tightrope high in the sky. The ground is not visible, just blue sky and clouds. The person is holding a balancing pole. They have arrived at the other end of the tightrope, which is anchored to a yellow sign planted in a chunk of earth that is hovering in space. The sign says "Closed" in black letters. A bird is perched on top of the signpost. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A small window in a concrete room looks out on a blue sky with a few clouds. The walls of the room are covered with garish paint and graffiti.

A person sits on a small rock on a shore, fishing. Above is a bright green sky, a round white sun, and a single bird. Below, under the water, on the submerged part of the land, is an eye; below, the fishing person's line leads into a mouth. The land is alive. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A gray night. Sitting in the middle of a meadow is a strange structure: what looks like a tree, with a trunk and branches, but where the leaf canopy would be is a giant boulder instead. On the left side of the boulder is a glowing, arched, yellow window. Sticking out of the top left is a small pipe chimney. In the top right of the sky, similar to the moon, is a glowing yellowish-green bubble. The boulder has a purple-green sheen with yellow highlights, reflecting the light from the bubble. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A blue night sky, with a light covering of purple clouds. In the distance is the purple skyline of a city. Hanging in the sky is an enormous white crescent moon, a smiley-face on its surface. In the foreground is a dark hill with a small staircase leading up it. Washing up the staircase is a small figure. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A tall humanoid robot walks in a bright yellow space, looking over its shoulder. It is wearing a brown suit, but its arms and legs are jointed, implying the suit is part of the robot's body. It also has a brown hat with a brim and an orange ribbon. Two doors in its back are open, with four control levers sticking out. In its right hand it carries a blue-green box with a neon green lightning bolt icon on it. Sticking out of its hat are two antennae. It has round eyes and a staring expression. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman."

A dark mountain range under a deep blue starry night sky. Above the mountains is a light scattering of blue clouds. Hovering above one of the mountain peaks is a reddish object that looks like the location pin in Google maps. In the sky to the right is a white crescent moon. Below is a triangular cave in the mountain side, yellow light spilling out of the opening. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".
