Description
"Andromeda's Dream" by Michael C. Turner© 2008/2009 ~ Galactic Visions Space Art
acrylic on stretched canvas using traditional bristle brush techniques ~ 36"x 60"
A pulsar awakens as its dark companion, a black hole, enacts its invisible, albeit powerful, gravitational force upon it. This view is from the frigid surface of a world orbiting a gas giant (almost out of view to the left) within a birthing nebula in one of the inner spirals arms of the Andromeda Galaxy, the Milky Way Galaxy's close local companion.
("Andromeda's Dream" is #2 in my Christmas in the Stars limited edition card series. [link] Each year I select one of my paintings to use on the cover of my "Christmas in the Stars" Christmas Card series which I began in 1991. I realize that everyone may not appreciate space art in this context however, I trust you shall still enjoy the paintings for what they depict scientifically if not spiritually . . . )
May All Your Visions Be Galactic Visions ~ Michael C. Turner

Stunning painting. I especially love the flow of the cloudy material in the sky. Great title for the piece as well!
