Space art is a term that refers to artistic imagery depicting outer space: solar systems, stars, nebulae, planets, galaxies and other space matter of the universe.

Space art dates back to 1865 when Emile Bayard and A. de Neuvill illustrated Jules Verne's novel, "From the Earth to the Moon". Those were the first space illustrations based on scientific facts. Later, Chesley Bonestell's (aka Father of Modern Space Art) realistic space renderings proved to be of major influence in the field. However, it was first after the launch of Sputnik in 1957 that space art and astronomical illustration really took off. Popular books like Arthur C. Clarke's "Exploration of Space" also helped promote the genre.

This space art gallery displays my depictions of the matter outside of our planet. I use a variety of techniques and digital tools, both 2D and 3D to create the images. Some of these images have been used in a BBC TV documentary about the universe. Space art posters, wallpapers, and framed prints are available for most images.








Online art and illustration since 1996.

In mid 1995 I bought my first 3D software called Bryce and have been using it ever since. It's great for landscape creation and much else. In fact Bryce has been essential for the creation of most of my sci-fi, surreal and space artwork. A 3D software I can highly recommend:

Bryce 6.1
