Ancient worlds carved and shaped by a long lost civilization.

A neutron star cannibalizing it's sister star. View from a planet orbiting this restless system. #Sciart #space #illustration #astronomy

Neptune visible from the surface of Galatea, one of it's minor moons. #Sciart #space #illustration #astronomy #neptune

#Jupiter's closest moon Metis emerges from the planet's shadow. Rings as well as two Jovian moons can be seen. Io with it's volcanic plumes, sulfur halo and aurora. Europa with hypothesized water ice geysers erupting from it's polar region. Bright blue star in the background is Earth. #astronomy

I am fascinated by a theory of tiny primordial black holes hitting solar system planets and moons, going through them as if they are barely there. This is my interpretation of such black hole piercing through our moon and emerging on the other side, leaving a small, unusual crater. #space #astronomy

An utterly frozen world leaving the Milky Way galaxy, doomed to float in a cold darkness of intergalactic space for all eternity. #Sciart #space #illustration #astronomy

Moon was much closer to Earth during Archean eon. It might even had an atmosphere. Which it was rapidly losing, getting it blasted off of a surface by a solar wind. It might have looked like a tail of a comet. #Sciart #Moon #illustration #astronomy

Although I consider myself as a space artist there was a time in my life when I was very close to becoming a paleoartist instead. In the end space won me over. Anyway, I had this image in my head of a T. rex in a forest. So here's my first paleoart attempt. T. rex in moonlight. #dinosaurs #paleoart

A view of Jupiter and Io from the bottom of one of countless icy ridges on Europa, a second Jovian moon. #astronomy #art #space #jupiter

Massive mountains of Io towers over volcanic plains bellow. Nothing special with this painting. I just wanted to pass some time I had and Io felt like a good place to do this. #astronomy #art #space #jupiter #painting

During Hadean eon Moon experienced a massive impact to it's south pole that formed Aitken basin. #art #astronomy #moon #space #ArtAdventCalendar

Pluto is about to eclipse Sun, submerging most of Charon in darkness with only source of light being stars and glowing ring of Pluto's blue atmosphere. #pluto #astronomy #space #art

Brown dwarf dimly glows in the sky of one of it's planets. #astronomy #art #space #planets #landscape

Just moved here. I will start uploading my paintings here. New and old. Starting with this resent one.
