Macaque with Aurora Borealis, oil on canvas, by Sarah Smith. Sarah says "Many of my pieces are formed around "portraits" of animals, composed in ways to encourage the viewer to reconsider their relationship to animals. In this piece, I combined the Aurora Borealis, an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon, with a species that I hope people can also find worthy of awe, admiration, and respect."
