Close up of a girl focused on fireflies in a jar. I invite you to visit the exhibit “Minnesota Made” at O’Shaughnessy Educational Center http://www.stthomas.edu/arthistory/exhibitions/ , runs until near the end of February. There you can view the whole of this piece, “Northern Lights” along with the works of many other talented artists from the Children’s Book Illustrator Guild. If you are not able to make the trip the complete image of “Northern Lights” can be found in my illustration gallery. http://www.linnelldesign.com/gallery/illustrations



This is soooo beautiful! I love the sweet expression and the movement in the background.
Nice composition and lighting. I like the dark shadows on the hills. She seems pretty intrigued by the fireflies.
I definately have to go see this in person.

Great work Linnell. Love your style, so soft and endearing. Great lighting and color.

Lovely luminous illustration. The colors are so rich! It makes me want to be there–or at least immersed in a world where this is the norm.
What wonderful rendering. Beautiful detail and feeling.
