Dancing Lights 2 - Original - sold Prints available

As it was so cold the night we saw the Aurora Borealis, and it was so cold in the couple weeks following, I felt it was appropriate to try the frost paintings again.
Frost pattern paintings are something I try every year when the temperature is low enough. I put a wet watercolor painting outside until it freezes. It works best with temperatures below -8C. It was in the range of -25C to -40C with the windchill.
This painting was painted outside in the cold. The second layer was painted inside and taken outside into the cold -20C while it was still wet.
