Astrid Jef

Astrid excels in space-themed art but is capable of painting nearly anything. She is currently honing her skills for live wedding paintings. While she primarily works with acrylics, she also has a good understanding of watercolor techniques.

From the artist:

Spacefy your universe! Everyone should have some space in their life, if only to put our own existence in perspective - existential crisis not withstanding. That's why I love painting space. Even just one small dot can represent something lightyears away, or even something lightyears large. Starting from a black canvas makes it even more special, it brings light into the dark. It's a reminder that no matter how dark things might look, there is often still space for brightness to bloom.
