This listing is for the single painting illustrated below.  In the gallery of photographs you can see it with the other paintings in the set which are listed separately.

Please Note:  This painting has a slight tear in the paper surface as illustrated in the gallery of photographs.  It’s only really visible close up and doesn’t distract from the piece at all.  This damage is reflected in the price. 

This watercolour galaxy painting was a bit of fun.  Indeed, something different from the fine, realistic detail that I normally paint.  I worked on a set of three, one of which is available on YouTube as a tutorial.  So you can see exactly how I painted it from start to finish.  Each would make an ideal inexpensive gift for someone interested in the solar system, stars, galaxies and the night sky.  Maybe an astronomer or novice star gazer, a child or an adult?  I liked the finished effect, particularly with the double border – I hope you do too. 

 Painting Dimensions

The piece has been painted on an excellent quality watercolour paper using the finest of brushes for the tiny detail produced.

To ensure the painting arrives safely it will be wrapped in cellophane and carefully packaged flat using thick board.  I aim for my originals to arrive with you in the same condition that they left me. I use the Royal Mail’s posting services and will ship first class mail in the UK.  Standard air mail will be used for any paintings going overseas.

I am a full time professional artist based in North Devon in the United Kingdom. I specialise in wildlife - animals, birds, insects, pets etc. I love to capture the life within my paintings and enjoy the process of working with the watercolour medium to create fine detail. I am continually adding to my portfolio and many of my paintings are available as tutorials - both written and video. Take a look on my channels and you may see this painting being created!
