I adore space dice so the moment I saw the James Webb Telescope images I knew I had to make them into dice. This is my attempt at recreating the cosmic cliffs photo. How did I do? (Numbers yet to be painted)
The U.S. Postal Service issued Priority Mail Express stamps Jan. 22, 2024, highlighting the iconic images of the Carina Nebula and the Pillars of Creation from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope l NASA
Have a quick look at my drafting on this Cosmic Cliffs spin! 🌌 I shot this backlit to show how I'm letting a controlled amount of twist enter the top - I prefer this woolenish-yet-short-forward draft spinning from top most of the time for soft, airy, easy yarn 😊
Thanks for all the love on my last painting, here’s the process of the Cosmic Cliffs🥰💫
It was so much fun to paint & I really enjoyed taking my time adding all the layers & details ✨💙
Infrared composite image of the Cosmic Cliffs created using two different cameras from the James Webb Space Telescope, NIRCam and MIRI. This combined image reveals hundreds of previously hidden stars and numerous galaxies.
I find comfort in knowing there is a ceaseless amount of life and creation that has existed before us , with us , and will continue to burst with unimaginable beauty infinitely long after we are gone .
