I Love Forever Through All Space & Time

a gouache paint illustration of ducks in space

This pair of mandarin ducks are swimming through space rippling through the Carina Nebula like pond waves. In space's vacuum, the only entity similarly bending light like a watery reflection is a black hole. Painted in thin layers with both paintbrush and airbrush, washes of color were stacked like panes of glass. I then painted opaquely over top with bold graphic brushstrokes to capture these black hole ripples.
