One painter's watercolor works brings out the wonders of space in the safety of her studio.

Connecticut-based artist Stella Maria Baer's dreamy planet paintings have earned her more than 100,000 followers on Instagram. Her neat, but detailed watercolors capture the moon's rough texture, Mars' soft oranges and maroons and Saturn's wide rings.

Baer told Mashable that her planet watercolors draw inspiration from April's Blood Moon eclipse.

More of her planetary art is available on Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter.
