My creative work in the last few years has been divided among three areas:
scientific research at PSI, my paintings, and my writing. I am currently on
the imaging team of NASA's Mars Global Surveyor mission. My paintings
include astronomical scenes (used for magazines, book covers, etc.) and
my writing includes popular science books and two recent novels.
You can explore all these efforts in more detail by clicking on the

PAINTING OF THE MONTH
"The Launch of Mars Observer"
This is an eyewitness view painted at Kennedy Space Center during
the launch of the Mars Observer spacecraft to Mars, on September
25, 1992. Spectators include scientists involved with instruments
on the spacecraft, and their families, invited and bussed to an
observation site by NASA. Mars Observer later failed during a
maneuver, after sending back one full-disk image of Mars. Acrylic
on acid free board. |
