What is your favorite type of art to create?

At this point in my life, I'm painting exclusively space art images, 24 inches by 24 inches on a diamond point, which gives a maximum horizontal and vertical length of ~35 inches. My Diamond Series consists of 50 paintings. My images include planetary landscapes of our solar system, galaxies, types of stars, and cosmological concepts. Every painting has a 250 to 300-word story. My intention is to teach the viewer what they are seeing and why it is relevant to the space environment around us.

Where do you find inspiration?

As a retired astrophysicist, mathematician, and visual artist, I want the viewer to experience the fascination of the universe around us. As explorers, I want to share the adventurous territory that awaits humanity above our heads in space and beyond the solar system.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would use the funds to publish my Diamond Series as an art book based on our current understanding of the cosmology of the twenty-first century.
