Description
Galactic Pathways©2012 Michael C. Turner
Galactic Visions Space Art
Acrylic on stretched canvas 48 x60 "
A colossal jetting spiral galaxy (a quasar) dominates a multi-galaxy filled sky as it rises above the horizon of a moon orbiting a ringed "super-earth" exo-galactic-planet. An array of satellite galaxies (spiral, elliptical, barred, globular, and irregular) creates a starry backdrop along with myriad other stellar companions. Such "Galactic Pathways" beckon intergalactic travelers across the Cosmos to boldly go where only imaginative minds dare go . . .
Extended descriptor: The depicted galaxy is actually a super-quasar or bipolar jetting galaxy. Quasars are extragalactic phenomena emitting immense amounts of energy in the form of light, infrared radiation, etc, from a super massive/dense source. This energy source is a super-massive black hole located in the centre of the galaxy.
*"Galactic Pathways is the second of my spacescape paintings to recieve a Daily Deviation. The first was "Mysterious Galactic Legends." fav.me/d1ltiot
* I wish to thank Ali (Casperium)casperium.deviantart.com/ for her kind recommendation of "Galactic Pathways" for a Daily Deviation. I am indeed most honored for she maintains the highest standards on Deviant Art. I am also most grateful to everyone who has viewed, favored, and/or commented on this painting. It was created over the past year as I worked on various paintings and I now know that my labor of love was well worth the time expended.
Warmest regards,
Michael C. Turner
I have had requests for prints on this painting and have now added it to my wallpaper gallery.fav.me/d4r2g9e

Traditional artwork captures a certain appearence that not any form of digital works in the space art category can ever capture, each is their own entity, and your artwork here is a stunning specimen.

Your skills are excellent, it is a rare thing to see such wonderfully done space-scenes in traditional media anymore. Great job.

Thank you most kindly for your thoughtful comment. Yes, it seems traditional art is often in the shadow of the mountain of digital art. As excellent as some ditial art is, I feel it can rarely capture the spirit as well as traditional art.
