"We are made of Stardust." John Gribbin
"Everyone of us is made of stardust," explains John Gribbin in his book, Stardust: The cosmic recycling of stars, planets and people. He goes on to say, "Life begins with the process of star formation. We are made of stardust. Every atom of every element in our body except hydrogen has been manufactured inside stars, scattered across the Universe in great stellar explosions, and recycled to become part of you" (p 1).
Many of my paintings have been influenced by the notion that all things are made of the same basic materials. My work is also inspired by the amazing images from space, like the Ring Nebula, the Hale-Bopp Comet, and the Globular star clusters.
