Jupiter’s Portrait
This acrylic painting was inspired by a composite photo of NASA NIRCam. It unveils auroras on both poles, swirling hazes and the awe-inspiring Great Red Spot, a famous storm that is over 300 years old. The brightness indicates high altitude – so the Great Red Spot appears white in this view while clouds with a lower altitude appear darker and blue.
