Orion Nebula

As if zooming through space to reach the core of the Orion Nebula, the artist depicts a close up view of the Orion Nebula’s open star cluster known as the Trapezium. Here we experience a star nursery boiling with such intense energy that stellar winds blast away dust and gases to create the nebula’s bowl shape. The veils of stunning multi-colored gases of the Orion Nebula stretch 24 light-years across the night sky, making it a favorite object for viewing among professional and amateur astronomers. This is the official image of our Spacefest IX, held in 2018 in Tucson, Arizona.

This open edition fine art giclee print of the original acrylic painting is signed by the artist.
