Description
This is a gift for who asked about having pluto in one of my space maps. The only thing about having pluto is that it has been downgraded to a Dwarf planet, so if I was to do one with pluto I would have to be fair and put the other dwarf planets (currently there are officially 5).I decided to put all the moons that are large like our own, in the solar system too:
Mercury
Venus
Earth (With Moon)
Mars
* Ceres (a dwarf planet)
Jupiter (With Four Largest Moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto)
Saturn (With Largest Moon: Titan)
Uranus
Neptune (With Largest Moon: Triton)
* Pluto (dwarf with 3 moons: Charon, Hydra, and Nix)
* Haumea (dwarf planet aka. "Santa")
* MakeMake (dwarf planet)
* Eris (dwarf planet aka. Xena or UB313)

I' d like to add your drawing to a multiple layered mixed media painting. How would you like me to give you credit for your work or buy the picture?

Sorry about this late response, I don't know if you are still doing this. But just give me credit, unless you are selling your artwork to over a hundred people, then perhaps we can come to a monetary arrangement.

Fair how? You mean fair to the dwarf planets?

It really highlights an important difference between the dwarfs and the other planets- the eight big ones follow regular, spaced-out, nearly circular orbits, and you can count them in an easy order from the Sun from 1 to 8, whereas the dwarf planets tend to follow eccentric orbits that cross each other - what a mess!
Nice artwork. :3

Cool. I never knew Ceres was a dwarf planet. I like how Eris crosses so many other orbits; very chaotic. Favorite!
