I liked the outcome and art style of the alien, so I decided to give him some surroundings. While  I was playing with photoshop colorization, I came up with the idea of procedurally generating  the background, instead of drawing it entirely by hand. First I came up with some simple pieces which I could copy & paste, flip, mirror & rotate:


Flowers and Plant pieces.



I then colorized those and assembled them into a background:
