Study for Space Art #1 by Kirk Witmer

Daily painting for July 7th - 6x8" - oil on archival panel

This one was elusive. Not the painting, but photographing it! I took more than twenty photos trying to capture the glow on this celestial body and this seems to be the best of the lot. I'm still not sure this does it justice. If you like this image, you should see it in person.
But again, this is another study in preparation for a larger painting.

So what's this picture have to do with this month's theme of "Upside Down"? This image is actually upside down from the way it sat on my easel as I painted it.
