ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Europa is one of the four Galilean moons that orbits Jupiter discovered in 1610 by the famous astronomer they are named for, Galileo . These moons were the first objects found to orbit a body that was neither Earth nor the Sun. This discovery lead to huge controversy about our placement in the universe(story for another day)The sixth-largest moon in the Solar System is named after Europa, the Phoenician mother of King Minos of Crete and lover of Zeus (the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Jupiter).Slightly smaller than Earth's Moon, Europa is primarily made of silicate rock and has a water-ice crust. Through a microscope it is like a huge reflective glass bowling ball that inspired this painting as well as because it is considered by scientists to be a place that we may well discover signs of life This is a work on paper created with acrylic, watercolor and metallic gold paint.

I have been a professional artist for 30 plus years. My studio time is sparked by the creative process itself.as well as broad subjects that include music, astronomy, the intertwining relationship of art and science , the forest, and the library The subject of Astronomy and Romance will start with a fact or two that I scribble or write about in my notebooks about black holes or something from or the NASA website or the spring garden and flower abstraction. . . The Library of Thought series symbolizes that knowledge is freedom. I began my career as a professor of art and treasure the journeys available to us inside books .. I live in Pennsylvania with dramatic color changes from season to season The Woodland series or The Magic of the Forest and the full moon were the first subject that inspired my artworks and I continue to walk and study the landscape and the sky. The ideas marinate and the images and messages seep through intuitively. I have always been making things: a angel food cake with sprinkles or a very carefully designed still life of twigs and rocks assembled along the banks of a river.
