The Source is the first painting completed entirely in Aon's Plus Ultra style: extreme depth, layered color and fractal geometry.

Up close, it is a technological landscape of crystalline structures and glowing energy cores. From a distance, the whole composition forms the outline of a human heart — the source of power the title refers to.

The fractals are hand-painted, without computer assistance. Hexagonal tiles bend around the perspective, and spherical fractals repeat inward toward the painting's core. The full color spectrum is one Aon reserves for the most pivotal moments in the story.

The painting establishes the architecture of the lost civilization at the center of Jack the Space Dog, and every painting in the series since has followed from it.
