Here is another painting from my imagination. It flowed fairly well...no big struggle here. The biggest struggle was with naming it. I kept coming up with titles I'd already used with prior cosmic landscapes....then I recalled a newscast reporting the discovery of possible water on Mars, soil that has similarities to ours and the possibility of life.

The quote below reflects one of the reasons I keep painting...

Today's Quote: "Everything that is new or uncommon raises a pleasure in the imagination, because it fills the soul with an agreeable surprise, gratifies its curiosity, and gives it an idea of which it was not before possessed."
-Joseph Addison
