The Northern Lights painting

When my Son and girlfriend visited Iceland they were hoping to see the northern lights and were very lucky enough to see a flicker of them.  I thought that as they both love volcanos too, I would create a picture using my artistic licence and imagination overlooking the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano with the magic of the lights above.  In this painting they are both  enjoying the view.  I look forward to giving them this picture when ever I next see them again. 

I used both Tim holtz distress Inks and my H2O's to create the shimmery lights adding some hot foil for the twinking stars peeping through. The volcano lava is a mixture of bright H2O paints and foils. The whole picture really does shimmer with the lights. I hope I have captured what it would look and feel like to stand there and see this fabulous view. :)

Thanks for visiting today... see you soon :)
