As dust clouds collapse under their own weight, stars emerge shining brightly -- ready to pierce the surrounding abyss. Innumerable suns are born each day, and the nursery that once fed them passes its legacy onto them such that life may spring from the tiny grains of sand orbiting them...Enough experimenting with new nebula-approaches and back to the comfort-zone with a bit of extra-detailing! Here's a wallie that might look similar to some older pieces of mine (see below) but it's made from scratch... I didn't really notice the resemblance until I was too far in to alter the whole image. Turns out I like this kind of composition

If you do, too, or just randomly want this image as a wallpaper, hit the download-button for the usual sizes:

4:3 -- 1600x1200

16:9 -- 1920x1080

16:10 -- 1920x1200
The same drill as always, favs, comments, watches, points, ... are mega-appreciated! They do give me that bit of motivation to keep painting stuff
