Description
Leonov was the first man to “walk” in space on March 18, 1965. Though he was expected to become a professional artist, aviation beckoned and Leonov was soon flying jets and studying engineering. When the call came for Cosmonaut candidates in 1959, 25 year old Leonov was picked as one of the first 20 Cosmonauts.

I am fascinated by your brush strokes. Seems you created this in the Impressionist style. The minimal color palette gives this painting an extraordinary feeling. This painting makes me feel as though he is falling away unaware of space, time and distance, the mist over taking and consuming him/me.
