There’s something magical about looking up at the night sky. The stars, the colours, the endless darkness. It makes you wonder what else is out there.
Galaxy paintings capture that same feeling. Some are bright and playful. Others are mysterious and calming. And some make you feel like you're floating somewhere far beyond Earth.
We’ve picked 10 original galaxy art paintings by talented fine art artists that caught our eye. Each has its own personality. Perhaps one will find a lovely spot on your wall.
1. Space Odyssey by Kat Yew
This painting is such fun to look at. There are colourful planets everywhere. Some pink, some turquoise, others bright orange and lime green. The deep purple sky makes every colour pop. And those sweeping turquoise lines? They almost look like planets racing along their orbits. Kat Yew has also added plenty of texture. The surface catches light beautifully, giving the painting an interesting three-dimensional feel. It's a cheerful piece that would look lovely in a home office or a child's reading corner. There's so much happening here. You could spend ages looking at all the little details.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 18 × 24 inches. Signed and ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included.
2. Starry Galaxy by Kat Yew
Now, this is dreamy!
Deep blues, soft purples and hints of magenta create a beautiful night sky. A bright turquoise glow lights up the centre. Tiny white stars appear everywhere. The colours seem to melt into one another. It almost feels like you're watching a galaxy slowly forming. There's something very peaceful about this painting. Despite its rich colours, it doesn't feel busy or overwhelming. And it's quite a generous size too. At 24 × 36 inches, it would look gorgeous above a sofa or bed. Especially if you love a bedroom that feels calm and a little mysterious.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 24 × 36 inches. Signed, stretched and ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included.
3. The Hidden Angel of the First Light by Ovidiu Kloska
There's something quite mysterious about this painting. At first, you see beautiful washes of purple, indigo and turquoise. Then you start noticing little details. Wisps of white. Soft shadows. Perhaps even the faint shape of an angel.
The more you look, the more you discover.
Ovidiu Kloska created this piece as part of his series The Wonderful Morning Dreams of Alice. The collection explores that strange, wonderful moment when you're half asleep and half awake. And this painting is huge! It measures about 55 inches square. It deserves a nice, spacious wall. Somewhere you can stand back, admire it and let your imagination wander.
Details: Original canvas, approximately 55 × 55 inches. Listed as new and in mint condition.
4. The Universe 122025 by Elena Lazari
This painting depicts a universe that feels full of life. Bright blue and shimmering gold swirl around a dark background. There's a lovely sense of movement too. Right at the centre, there's a golden shape that almost looks like a beating heart. Or perhaps a star being born. That's actually what Elena Lazari had in mind. She describes the painting as a moment captured during the birth of a new star.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 59.9 × 59.9 cm. Created in 2025. Ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included.
5. Cosmic Space by Kat Yew
This painting is perfect if blue is your favourite colour. Beautiful shades of turquoise, teal and cobalt cover the canvas. Little flecks of gold add warmth and sparkle. But what makes this painting interesting is its texture. The surface has ridges, scratches and thick layers of paint. It almost looks like a rugged landscape seen from somewhere high above. Some areas are dark and mysterious. Others are bright and almost luminous. There's a lovely balance here. The colours feel fresh and calming, while the textured surface gives the painting plenty of character. I can imagine this looking beautiful in a bedroom. Perhaps paired with soft beige furnishings and natural wood.

6. Lost in Space 2 by Heike Schmidt
Heike Schmidt loves blue. And it shows. The German artist, also known as Blue Moon, sees blue as a colour that expresses longing and infinity. Her paintings are spontaneous and expressive. She lets colours, movement and intuition guide her workHer artistic influences include Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock and Yves Klein. So if you enjoy expressive abstract paintings, this one might appeal to you. It's also a very large canvas, measuring nearly five feet wide. This is the kind of painting that needs a generous wall. You wouldn't want to squeeze it between shelves and furniture. The seller's description is rather brief, though. I'd recommend requesting a few more photographs before buying.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 150 × 100 cm. Created in 2010. Unframed. Certificate of authenticity included.
7. Beyond the Universe by Kat Yew
This painting looks like something wonderful just flew across the night sky. A bright trail of pink, magenta and yellow cuts through deep blue and teal. Tiny specks of colour surround it, almost like distant stars. There's plenty of movement here. You can almost imagine a comet racing across space. And I really like how the colourful streak stands out against the darker background. It's lively without being too loud. This would make a lovely painting above a desk or console table. Especially if your room needs a little colour. It's also a nice size. Big enough to attract attention, yet small enough to fit comfortably into most rooms.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 18 × 24 inches. Signed and ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included.
8. Faraway by Charlotte Elizabeth
There's a lovely story behind this painting. Charlotte Elizabeth creates her Moon Series paintings only during the three days surrounding each full moon. That alone makes the artwork feel rather special. She also uses a velvety black paint that absorbs light. The darkness looks incredibly deep, almost endless. And the painting is quite dramatic. Charlotte once worked as a scenic artist in London's West End, creating large theatrical backdrops. You can see that love of scale and atmosphere in her work. At 45 inches square, Faraway is a substantial painting. I think it would look beautiful in a modern living room. Somewhere with simple furniture and plenty of wall space.
Details: Original painting, 45 × 45 inches. Oil, acrylic and metal leaf. Signed on both sides. No framing required.
9. Silent Night II by Kat Yew
This painting makes me want to sit quietly and just look at it. There's a beautiful night sky filled with soft lavender, violet and blue. A bright shooting star crosses the sky. Below, layers of mountains fade into the distance. Little pine trees stand quietly against the horizon. Everything feels still. You can almost imagine the cool night air and the silence of the mountains. And that shooting star adds a little magic. I particularly like this painting for a bedroom. The colours are soothing, and the scenery has a lovely sense of calm. It's also quite large, measuring 24 × 36 inches. A beautiful piece to enjoy while winding down after a long day.
Details: Acrylic on canvas, 24 × 36 inches. Signed and ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included.
10. Outer Space II by Barbara Hubert
This dramatic painting is composed of a large, cratered planet sitting against a storm of fiery red and deep blue. Bright crimson light spreads across the canvas. It almost looks like a star exploding somewhere far away. The colours are bold. The contrast is striking. And there's a wonderful sense of mystery. Barbara Hubert, a Polish painter and professor, created this oil painting in 2018. I like how the painting feels both calm and chaotic. The planet appears almost motionless, while everything around it seems alive. This would be a fantastic choice if you love dramatic artwork. Imagine it against a simple white wall. You really wouldn't need much else.
One thing to check before buying: this is a pre-owned painting. The seller mentions some imperfections, and it may arrive rolled rather than stretched.
Details: Oil on canvas, approximately 43 × 35 inches. Created in 2018. Pre-owned, listed in good condition.
