Fine art painter Jeff Foster created a series of four Star Trek space paintings featuring various spacecrafts from the Sci-Fi series set against an outer space setting.
These paintings, which are sold as prints over at ThinkGeek, give a serious perspective to intergalactic travel, and provide an impressionistic view on the conceived reality of geeky space dramas. With titles such as 'Exploration' and 'Hunting for Prey,' the collection captures the artist's interpretation of what the Andromeda and Klingon Birds-of-Prey look like as they soar through nebulas and solar systems at light speeds.
A serious fan of the Star Trek series will enjoy having these Star Trek space prints as decoration for their bedroom or office space.
