The Stone-Builders Artwork

This mixed media image developed from the thought that as our technology advances and our capabilities increase, the human race will begin to move out into the solar system and eventually beyond...but I have this feeling that no matter where we go or how far our travels take us, we will continue to find evidence of those who came before us... It was something Dr. Carl Sagan wrote that started a flood of ideas in my brain - he said: “Since in the long run, every planetary civilization will be endangered by impacts from space - every surviving civilization must become spacefaring. Not because of exploratory or romantic zeal, but for the most practical reason imaginable - staying alive. If our long-term survival is at stake, we have a basic responsibility to our species to venture to other worlds.” Personally, I believe the universe holds much more information than our senses can perceive, and reaching out into space will challenge everything we ever thought was true. I have been fascinated with interstellar travel and drawing pictures of space since childhood - and now, as an artist, this barrage of newly discovered planets and celestial objects lights up my imagination with questions;“Is there sound in space?”…Is there really a Planet 9?… How long does it take to get to Mars?”… “What is the Great Attractor?”… “Exactly how does mass bend spacetime?”…“Why is Light a particle when you are looking at it but a wave if you’re not?”...and on and on...
