On a visit to Nauvoo, Illinois, we were sitting waiting for the evening entertainment at Sunset on the Mississippi when the sky turned magnificent. I had a small watercolor studio and painted the scene and came home to develop the small acrylic painting above it.

We had a postage stamp size picture of Marge's great grandfather. It is a high contrast snapshot pasted in a genealogy book. I thought it would be great to bring him into color.
