In a busy spaceport, a young redheaded woman wearing a glittering gold mini skirt and loose long sleeve top stops to lean against a metal support pillar. Discreetly, she holds a thin horseshoe shaped device with the head of a serpent and a green glowing eye. Behind her, the background is split into two levels. The upper deck is tinted purple while the lower level is bathed in gold. Wearing black cloaks, humanoids with disfigured faces are sprinkled among the panoply of alien lifeforms. Some fight through the press of bodies toward the girl.

Background detail featuring the cast of alien figures below the stairs bathed in warm light. Central among them is a tall man in black robes whose face is disfigured with a pattern of lines like a maze. His arms in front of him are hidden in bell-like sleeves.

Detail from THIS ALIEN SHORE featuring the view past the young woman to a ramp of stairs, purple tinted facade of the spaceport interior, and a tall arched window with a view of a rotating space station beyond. A cast of alien characters occupy the stairs including an ogre-like couple. The man stops, craning his long neck as his wife grabs his elbow and says something to him. A seedy looking alien drapes his elbow over the railing and glance over to the main foreground left. Next to him an attractive female with white shoulder length hair anchors at the ledge with arms wide and palms down as she gazes down to the right. Her arms are covered with ringed metal that flourishes at the round of her shoulder in shorter protrusions. Behind her, three men, whose faces are disfigured with a maze-like pattern, stand out in black robes. As they converge scanning the crowd in different directions, one points to the main figure in the foreground left. A mechanized man with human face and robot body—the bottom half with oversized—can be seen from behind. On what should be his posterior is etched the artist's sigil, the letters M and W combining inside a circle.
