A fairly major milestone occurred last week. I finished (?) the first of 4 paintings in the SDO Project. Unlike the first time I was finished, I really do like the way this has turned out. I may do a bit of final tweaking once all the others are done but for now I can put the orange paints away.

Just this morning I began reworking the blue panel. I have fewer palette options but it should be fun.
Edit: In case you were wondering, the name of the painting “AIA 304 Å” is related to the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on the SDO spacecraft and the 304 Å (angstrom) wavelength of light that is captured by the camera array. 304 Å shows the details of ionized helium present in the sun’s atmosphere.
