Hi Rhoda. A very nice sketch of Uranus with it's rings. Uranus’ rings were discovered by accident in 1977 by Voyager 2. There are 13 rings known and are all very faint and narrow, which explains why they were unknown for so long. Thanks for sharing this artwork with us on here Rhoda and keep your sketching talent coming.
