Black Hole Armillary Sphere • Editorial Science Illustration • Quanta Magazine • 2022
Encased in a gyroscopic armillary sphere, a supermassive black hole powers the gears that drive a galaxy — or is it the other way around?

Epic/ArtStation prioritized "AI" over artists. I no longer update here.

I don't agree with ArtStation's response to A.I.-generated content. As both artist and art director, I'm only here for human-made art. Although there's now a #noAI tag and updates to policy, it came only after a lawsuit and at the cost of hundreds of hours of work by artists who make this place worth visiting.
