"A couple of months ago, I finished the painting of Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield just before he became Commander of the International Space Station. Just painting the image was worth the effort because I really enjoyed it. But then Commander Hadfield saw it in orbit, sent me a short message and re-tweeted the link to his followers on Twitter.

Had it all ended there, I would have been pleased enough." Click here for more of the story.
