Victoria has a passion for botanical painting. Germany-based botanical artist Victoria Beyer has dedicated her life to studying and painting flowers. Her vibrant illustrations capture the delicate nature of these blooms, and it almost feels as though her works are about to leap off the page. Part scientific study, part artistic practice, her process involves real time observation of plants to create the most true-to life representations. Thankfully, she also enjoys teaching and sharing her knowledge with others. In her newest online class, Botanical Watercolors: Learning to Paint Realistic Flowers, Beyer teaches the basics of botanical study, including dissecting plants and identifying different parts of them. She also gives students tips and tricks to working with watercolor that can bolster confidence within the medium. Although this intermediate watercolor course won¡¯t be released to the public until May 20, students currently have an opportunity to enroll early and save. During the pre-sale period, you can save 10% off the normal retail price of $34.95 by using code botanicalart10 at checkout, and, once the course is released, you will find all the course lessons ready for you. The best part is that they¡¯re on demand, meaning you can watch at your leisure and revisit lessons as often as you¡¯d like. Enroll Now ? Learn more about Victoria and get inspired by her work ? ? How did you get your start with art? Art has always been part of my life. By the time I was 6, I was already doing Disney character commissions for my classmates. I didn¡¯t study art in college, I wasn¡¯t allowed to... Instead, I got a bachelor's degree in construction engineering, but in my 30s, I decided to pursue my calling, which was painting, and haven¡¯t stopped. I¡¯m 42 now. What attracted you to botanical art illustration, especially in relation to watercolor? I was really amazed at how botanical artists could create such bright and realistic illustrations with watercolor, a medium known for its flow and typical pigment stains. I thought, "I have to take on the challenge and master it myself." ? Do you have any artists specifically who have inspired you? Yes, I do! These artists have inspired me in different ways, from the way the approach their practice, the challenges they have faced, and their unique style. Like Ursula Romero with her big modern leaf portraits and blue flowers, Billy Showell and her creative compositions, or Dianne Sutherland¡¯s journals. What was the most challenging part of working in watercolor for you when you started? When I started with watercolors, I didn¡¯t take a course. I tried to figure it

Fw: Astronomy Picture of the Day (5/12/2025): Gaia Reconstructs a Side View of our Galaxy
Astronomy Picture of the Day Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2025 May 12 Gaia Reconstructs a Side View of our Galaxy Illustration Credit: ESA, Gaia, DPAC, Stefan Payne-Wardenaar Explanation: What does our Milky Way Galaxy look like from the side? Because we are on the inside, humanity can¡¯t get an actual picture. Recently, however, just such a map has been made using location data for over a billion stars from ESA¡¯s Gaia mission. The resulting featured illustration shows that just like many other spiral galaxies, our Milky Way has a very thin central disk. Our Sun and all the stars we see at night are in this disk. Although hypothesized before, perhaps more surprising is that the disk appears curved at the outer edges. The colors of our Galaxy's warped central band derive mostly from dark dust, bright blue stars, and red emission nebulas. Although data analysis is ongoing, Gaia was deactivated in March after a successful mission.
