Pluto and New Horizons

The images coming from New Horizons of Pluto and its moons are so incredibly exciting. I think a lot of us had forgotten how wonderful it is to see a new world for the first time. I was a little girl when we landed on the moon, but I still remember sitting in front of the tv, amazed. Now, I'm sitting in front of a computer screen, but the same joy and excitement are there!

We, humanity, are still searching and discovering things. We are still exploring. How beautiful and exciting is that?

And the heart image on Pluto... oh, my. I use the heart theme often in my art work. It is personally meaningful to me. I can't wait to do a painting of Pluto from Charon. Space art is a new interest of mine. I'm still developing a style in that genre, but I love it... it is so much fun.

We had rain yesterday, but I can't complain. We had heat indices over 100 degrees, and now it is cooler. Once the sky clears of clouds, it will be time to stargaze again.

Thank you for visiting, and don't miss those images of Pluto!
