NORDIC DREAMS by Jon Crane -- Fine Art Watercolors cold creek many people start the three-mile

many people start the three-mile hike from Sylvan Lake to reach the top of the 7

In the farthest corners of the South Dakota Badlands

the chapel stands as a testament to the area's rich heritage and enduring spirit

While most of the buildings are now gone

where each person plays a role in steering toward brighter horizons

NORDIC DREAMS by Jon Crane -- Fine Art Watercolors cold creek many people start the three-mileNordic Dreams have come alive in this watercolor by Jon Crane, third painting in the "Chapel in the Hills" series. In this charming rendition of the chapel, Jon expresses the details of the architecture and woodcarving of this Stave style chapel along with the fresh flowers and green grass of spring. Even the Black Hills slate rocks that form the foundation of the chapel are highlighted in explicit detail.
