I’m over the moon that I finally can present this wonderful project I worked on last year with Derwent. There’s always a unique journey that occurs with every art commission, but this project and the finished art is one of my personal favorites. It’s special to me because of the subject matter and what inspired the art. I wanted to create an illustration that is dedicated to space exploration and celebrates women astronauts who have journeyed into space. Right alongside my heroes of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo space programs are cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Svetlana Savitskaya, and astronauts, Sally Ride, Christa McAuliffe, Mae Jemison, and many more including today’s space program and Artemis astronauts. I can’t tell you how excited I was that this was going to be our inspiration, and how delighted I am to be able to share it now. You can see and purchase both Inktense Blocks Tin sets on the Derwent UK website link below. My deepest thanks and gratitude to the incredible team at @derwentartofficial for inviting me to this project and be able to share my passion for art and space exploration.
