After painting the beging of dark matter filaments for the UCL commission I sat down last night and drew a traditional portrait that I will be creating in oils soon for one of classes my classes that I teach @valecourse. I may use this one or not I have not decided yet.

Dark matter filaments stretch out through the universe, today I am in the middle of mapping them out. More layering will proceed after this. For now I will be leaving these layers to dry out.  I will bed pulling the blue of galaxies back through and weave the dark matter filaments into the the blue.
