Rare Red Aurora
“Red Aurora” original acrylic painting in pointillism by Gail Niebrugge, original sold, limited edition prints sold out, some Artists Proofs available.
If you haven’t had the pleasure to witness a red aurora borealis, you have missed a spectacular, wondrous event. The red-colored northern lights are like nothing else, even the very best man-made artificial laser show cannot compare to the size and scope of one of these rare events. I imagined a herd of caribou, normally invisible in the black of night and moving soundlessly, silhouetted against the glow of a red aurora. Without the incandescent heavens, nighttime in Alaska’s wilderness is very dark. The Wrangell-St. Elias is a magical place no matter the season, but the best part is that it is in my very own back yard.
More tomorrow,
Gail Niebrugge, Alaska’s wilderness pointillism artist
