8×8″, pearlescent watercolor over black ground on cradled art board.
A captivating image of rainbow clouds framing a portion of the Eagle Nebula star-forming region as seen by the James Webb Space Telescope in combined images of near- and mid-infrared light. The near-infrared light brings out the myriad of stars in the region, while the mid-infrared light shows the dust, a primary component in star formation. Definitely my most detailed pearlescent-on-black piece to date, this one took a lot longer than I expected!
