STAR CLUSTER

41″ x 41″

A GATHERING IN A MAGELLANIC CLOUD

These clusters are common all over the universe. They are usually the birthplace of stars which are often red giants that eventually disintegrate, providing the material for a new star birth. All these stars are held together by enormous gravitational pull which might lead to the creation of new galaxies.

This painting does not depict a particular gathering of stars, but rather describes its power and force.
