Artist's Description
The original painting had the very special honor of being chosen to exhibited at Kennedy Space Visitors Center on December 21, 2018 under the belly of Space Shuttle Atlantis during a gala celebration of Apollo 8's 50th anniversary. I was inspired by the thought of the very first humans to see Earth from lunar orbit. The reflection of Earth penetrates the understanding that our beautiful home planet is a fragile oasis for humanity. Celebrating the gift of the image "Earthrise" that Apollo 8 brought back to Earth, I think of astronaut Bill Anders quote - "We came all this way to explore the Moon, and the most important thing is that we discovered the Earth." I illustrated the eye as an amalgamation of all three astronauts aboard Apollo 8, Frank Borman, Jim Lovell & Bill Anders, and imagining all three men simultaneously looking out the capsule window awed by the site of our precious world form the distance of the moon. Three men looking back at all of us!
