Northern Lights

5"x8" Colored Pencil Painting

Story behind the art: There are many native American legends and folklore about the Northern Lights. One of my favorite is an Algonquin myth that tells of when Nanahbozho, creator of the Earth, had finished his task of the creation, he traveled to the north, where he remained. He built large fires, of which the northern lights are the reflections, to remind his people that he still thinks of them. Science aside, I think the Northern Lights are a reminder that God loves us and demonstrates that love by inspiring us with beautiful His creations.
