Night Art

The Canterlot International Art Expo was a buzz with ponies showcasing their top masterpieces to renowned artists of the time. This event was so popular that even Princesses Celestia and Luna partook in the festivities every once in a while. Tonight was one such night that the princesses attended the event. They looked around and saw many different and unique pieces of art. From sculptures to paintings and everything in between. Eventually, Luna caught eye of a large group of ponies gathered around a small podium-like display area in total awe over what they saw.

"Magnificent!" one mare said.

"Astonishing!" a colt remarked.

Luna's curiosity got the better of her and she went over to the display area to see what got everypony's attention. When she arrived, ponies made way for the princess as she approached the stand. Her eyes were met with what could only be described as a simplistic, yet inspiring piece of art.

"Who is responsible for this artwork?" Luna asked the crowd.

Just then a stallion in a wheelchair rolled over to the princess, accompanied by his daughter.

"Y-Your majesty, I am who painted this piece." He said, a bit in shock to have a princess ask about his work.

"Well young stallion, may I ask what is it that inspired your work?" Luna asked the amazed colt.

"Why your highness, it is your wonderful night that is what inspired me to paint this. One night, some time ago I awoke from a dream that involved a crescent moon and stars that looked so amazing that I simply had to make that dream a reality!"

Luna gasped in amazement. Not many ponies would often comment on her nights, much less draw inspiration to create something as beautiful as this.

"May I ask, what is your name sir. For I may be interested in purchasing this item, that is...if you were willing to sell that is?" Luna asked.

"Spectrum Dream, your majesty and it would be an honor to sell this panting to you!" Spectrum Dream answered.
