…star gazing

I have a thing for photos of the sky. Particularly the sky we don’t see on a daily basis.

Stars.

Nebulas.

Galaxies.

Stuff only the Hubble telescope is privy to seeing.
[as a child of the Universe, it only seems right, right?]

Recently, I’ve been playing with ways to use these images in my work to create that kind of sublime feeling I get when thinking about space, history, the universe, etc.

Photoshop has been a huge aid in bringing together collage ideas I’ve had swirling around in my head for a while – without storing hundreds of old magazines to cut up and glue together [as much as i'd really love to…]

These two pieces are full of colour and vibrance – so I’ve been playing with the idea of having them up for sale and available in multiple sizes [i've already been literally begged for the second one in large size prints… we'll see…]

I’ve grown fond of the digital collage, so if I were you, kittens, I’d be on the lookout for more of these gems coming soon. And if I get lucky, these collages will take on forms reaching far further than the digital realm…

[ooooh…]
