*Orbital Objects* February Digital Downloads are here! (Patreon)

Magical Patrons,

It's no secret that I am enamoured with all things to do with space - the names of all our Patreon tiers should have been a dead giveaway! I recently went down a rabbit hole of low earth orbit, mid earth orbit and high earth and geosynchronous orbits and the satellites or shuttles that explore each one.  I wanted to paint these beautifully complex and incredible objects and settled on these three miraculous explorers.

Galileo is an NASA space probe that explored Jupiter and Jupiter's moons until 2003 when it was crashed into the surface so it wouldn't collide with Europa! 

The SpaceX Dragon can actually CARRY passengers and cargo and while the new wave of billionaires in space is pretty problematic, the brilliance of this craft is wild to me because it's designed to carry STUFF from SPACE. 

RADARSAT-1 is actually a Canadian satellite that sent us info about.. well.. US.  Because Canada is humongous, one of the only ways to observe it all is from space so Canada decided in 1995 to head to space to get a better vantage point.

The beauty and complexity of these orbital objects is one of the reasons I'm so grateful to have YOU magical Patrons, and the support that lets me follow a fascination until it turns into a painting. I am so utterly grateful to be able to take the time to do it.  I hope you enjoy these desktop and phone wallpapers and as always, if you need something sized for a different device just let me know.

Thank you for being here friends.  You're incredible.
