Thats a powerful takeoff that you have painted Diana. The smoke is beautifully painted and the whole scene is full of energy.

Smashing painting, Diana, the smoke is terrific and the whole scene is full of power and very detailed. Admirable and enviable skill.

Thank you Sarah. I was unsure about posting this one as its so far removed from my usual work Thank you Cesare . I would never have painted such a subject if it wasn't for a challenge. Thank you Dennis .I was drawn to the orange light within the dark greys. Thank you Fiona .your support is much appreciated. I'm pleased to have found a use for the paper Diana

Watercolour paper. 12 " diameter. The paper is incredibly soft and I used a stencil brush to form the smoke. Not my usual type of subject but painted for the Art Tutor monthly challenge. Subject … space travel
