Galaxy Glimpse, 16" Round Original Fluid Acrylic on Gallery‑Wrapped Canvas (Unframed, Finished Edges) – Embrace the Unknown Series – Theresa Henderson (2022)
$0.00
A narrow window into cosmic immensity, Galaxy Glimpse positions a slender band of starlit color against a velvety void. Henderson pours a matte black expanse, then swipes a diagonal ribbon of magenta, cobalt, and icy white through its center. Using a fine mist of alcohol, she fractures this stripe into clusters of radiant cells—miniature galaxies sparkling inside nebular haze.
Along the edges of the celestial band, subtle lavender glows soften the transition from brilliance to darkness, as if interstellar dust were diffusing distant light. The stark contrast makes the luminous core appear to hover in infinite depth, offering the viewer a fleeting peek through a telescope before clouds roll in. It’s a reminder that wonder often arrives in slivers, asking us to treasure each brief view.
