Floating Planets Of Crystal Painted On Wood Panels
Artist Nicole Gustafsson sets her sites on uncharted galaxies, where suspended crystalline worlds with jutting cliffs and ledges are lit up with imagination and starry wonder. Inspired by a deep fascination with space and mineral studies, the artist has featured the artwork from two previous art series titled, “Celestial Spaces” and “Fantastic Spaces,” and they can be made into prints and postcards on her Etsy shop called Nimasprout. Â
Pastel and psychedelic shades dominate the art, with a tone reminiscent of the 80s sci fi and video games era, and these paintings are far from a futuristic reinvention of comic worlds but a classic tribute to the dreamy landscape of our imagination. Gustafsson paints directly onto wood panelling using  Acryla Gouache which lends it a vintage and kaleidoscopic effect. The crystal platforms are lush with extraterrestrial plant life, shimmering mineral formations and the surface acts as a prism reflecting the colorful rays from neighbouring stars. Find Gustafsson’s work in her Etsy shop.
