One of my friends from the Astronomy Club of Asheville is an accomplished artist. Her name is Diane Chambers.  She works with watercolors. Since she also has more than a passing interest in astronomy, she’s created some beautiful  watercolor paintings inspired by astronomical images.

Bug Nebula- Watercolor by Diane Chambers

I was lucky enough to win this painting, she donated, of the “Bug Nebula”, at last December’s annual club fund raiser auction at our holiday social.  It’s just one example of Diane’s fine work.  Please visit her website  at http://pdchambers.wix.com/artist#!outer-space/cdh5 and view the rest of her “outer space” gallery and the other beautiful work she’s done.
