Hi Rhoda. Sorry to come in late on this thread as I am still catching up with everybody on here. A very nice painting and your rendition of a face on spiral galaxy is very nice. I like the star field, spiral arms details and the central core. Thanks for sharing your latest work with us Rhoda and keep your great artistic talents coming.
