Astroscape #3

Painted completely within Inkscape - December, 2023

Printed on Red River Paper’s Palo Duro, 100% cotton paper made to archival standards.

The September 2023, images from the James Webb Telescope of other galaxies were awe inspiring.

They are really works of art by themselves, and I did not want to replicate them.

After making several drafts, I opted to create a background similar another galaxy’s.

Upon the background, I created energy lines in a 21st century, vector graphic, rendition from Brice Marden

The result is another abstraction in my astroscape series.

Astroscape #3 took 3 full months to complete. Many drafts were created and discarded.

To me, and I’m fighting a trend, abstracts are not throwing paint or ink on a canvas.

Abstracts involve detailed work which requires lots of concentration until the finished project has been reached.

Red River Paper’s Palo Duro 315 paper has a texture - which enhances the appearance of the print.

A single print, what I call a monoprint, was created: 1 print - 36" x 24"

Digital prints and larger sizes are available - contact me for more information.
