Description
"Celestial Baubles" by Michael C. Turner© Galactic Visions Space Art
acrylic on stretched beveled canvas using traditional bristle brush techniques ~ 48"x 60"
*** (Please see Poetry Picture astroboy1.deviantart.com/art/q… )
A colorful movement of “celestial baubles,” of various star types and sizes (blue, white, yellow, orange, red) perform an elaborate "galactic waltz” as they spiral through space toward a spiral galactic emperor with a cloaked black hole deep within its light-filled nucleus. A host of other astronomical bodies (comets, asteroids, planetoids) perform a complicated celestial movement as they dance to the bizarre gravitational influx field created from the inescapable gravity of the massive "dark musician."

Greetings,
Thank you. You have posed and excellent question . . . The surface is actually a cauldron of plasma (ionized gases) and you would have to have super vision that could filter out the light intensity and also not be blinded by the massive star's light. I have taken artistic license and depicted what you could see if you did have such vision or, more scientifically, what a filtered view would possibly look like. Artistically, I used the details to give a sense of action which still representations can't adequately depict in contrast to live action media. I will be adding new images from time to time so please do check back from time to time.
Kindest regards,
Michael C. Turner

This is a really beatiful one. Can you really see the spots blue stars' surfaces like that with your naked eyes or are they too bright? Several of your paintings feature black holes, so I'm wondering some of the scenes are connected?
