Hello World

 

 

Hi there, my name is Dacio and I paint the colors of the cosmos. I'm a painter and a web developer with a passion for sharing astronomy and science.
The Cosmos Gallery is a place to engage your sense of curiosity for the universe. Here you will find an online art gallery with pictures of my original artwork, a blog, and a directory of online learning resources.

My oil paintings have been described as space art, art inspired by the cosmos, astro art, space artwork, paintings of the universe, paintings of the cosmos, astronomy art, and even science inspired fine art.

I hope you enjoy my oil paintings as much as I'm enjoying reconnecting with science in my life through art and astronomy.
