Neil DeGrasse Tyson portrait

Description

Been watching the new Cosmos lately and have enjoyed it a lot.  I've been wanting to practice doing portraits, so I picked on Neil.  The background planet pngs
all came from NASA, as did the constellation Andromeda.  I painted Neil looking off in the distance to Pluto.  I thought it might be a little ironic and maybe humorous, 
considering he had a lot to do with it being downgraded as a planet.  I love Neil DeGrasse Tyson, he makes the wonders of the universe sooooo interesting.  This took about 14 hours, all in Corel Painter 13 with an Intuos 3.

Beautiful work, Patrick!  Neil's one of my favourite people, too; I have his Cosmos on DVD.
