NASA reveals new space tourism posters


NASA has unveiled a stunning new set of space tourism posters that promote fictitious journeys to space. The space agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory commissioned the three retro style posters from Invisible Creature, a design firm founded and run by Demon Hunter's Don and Ryan Clark. The artwork will be available to download for free from the JPL website soon, but for now, you can buy high-quality prints signed by the artists for $40 each.

Katy Ann Gilmore is my new favorite on Instagram

Katy Ann Gilmore is a Los Angeles-based visual artist who specializes in making extraordinary illustrations on paper and large scale murals using micron and gel pens.

"I try to rest my eyes/hands/brain every once in awhile by looking away from the drawing, dropping the pen, and taking a breather." Katy received a BA in Mathematics, Art, and Spanish from Greenville College in Il...
