Apart from writing, I also enjoy making paintings and sketches.
These days I am into making astronomical art. Apart from just the
art, I like to develop back stories for my paintings. You can click
on any of the thumbnails below to see the large size artwork. Each
thumbnail also includes the story of what the painting is all about.

Serenity 
|
Tau Ceti 3
|
|
The inhabitants of this large Earth-like ringed planet call
their world 'Serenity'. The planet is peaceful, united, unpolluted
and its inhabitants have developed much spiritually. This
planet is in the Capella star system. Capella shines brightly
in the background.

A large moon in the foreground revolves around a nearby habitable
world which is the third in distance from Tau Ceti.

Transit of Venus 
|
Galaxyrise 
|
|
The planet Venus made a rare transition across our sun on
June 9, 2004. This is a painting I made in Photoshop to honour
the event. The point of view is much closer to Venus than
our Earth is.

A spiral galaxy with a bright red supernova (left spiral
arm) rises over the ocean of a world located within a globular
star cluster which is one of several thousand that revolve
around the galaxy. This is the view from the planet Toriban
from my story 'Galaxyrise'

Epsilon Micah

Concentration Tower 
|
|
A spacevessel prepares for an interstellar voyage as it soars
above the jovian planet, the motherworld to the home moon
which is completely covered by habitation. This civilisation
exists around a red dwarf star somewhere in the large magellenic
cloud. The Milky Way is seen in the background.
|
A 12-kilometre high natural tower looms in the skyline of
a watery planet that belongs to a binary star system somewhere
in the periphery of the Milky Way Galaxy.
