Welcome to Sunday Sketches! This piece is called 'Tepee under the Northern Lights', it's done in acrylic on textured purple cardstock (6" x 6"). Unfortunately the scanned version doesn't show the fuschia colour I used for some the the lights, so I took a photo to show you the intended effect. I have never seen the Northern Lights so this is based on some photos I saw. The tepee is lit up inside, under the night sky.

Beautiful painting, I saw them once in Scotland when I was a kid - but there were no tepees there! Hugs, Valerie
Love the painting - I haven't seen the Northern Lights either!
beautiful!! We have been lucky enough to see the Northern Lights, you never forget them once you witness the magic!
I haven't seen the Northern Lights either but they must be amazing. A tepee would be a great place to watch them from.
beautiful artwork
Yes, the photo version is better. Nice colors.
Very beautiful! I love the combination of colours.
Love your painting! Isn't it amazing how photos and scans can never show the true colors? I think both color displays are beautiful though :)
Thank you so much for the chocolate banofee biscuit balls recipe. They look SO delicious! I need to try this out *yum!* The video makes it look so easy :)
Lots of hugs,

nice painting! I would love to see the Northern Lights....maybe someday :)
I love the tepee under the colorful northern lights. And really the photo shows the color so much better! Thank you for sharing this and a happy new year to you!
I like this very much Christine, as I have Cherokee Indian roots. Love the lights. I'm still trying to get my scanner to work.
Oh this is so lovely! I've never seen the Northern Lights in person either, but I very much enjoyed seeing it here today!
Thanks for including the photo version. You're right; the colors are much nicer.
I've never witnessed the Northern Lights live either. However, based on videos and photographs I have seen, I believed you captured the feeling. Happy New Year!
