Over July 4, 2004, my mom came to the cabin, and Kenneth, Diana, and Don joined us there. We saw an interesting constellation formation that Kenneth said he wished could be painted. Eventually, Angus Macpherson painted a beautiful picture for both Kenneth and Diana, and they cherish it as a memory of the last time they saw their grandmother.
Fast forward 16 years, and the same constellation showed up at about the same time. With the marvel of the iPhone 11, Kenneth took a picture of the constellation amongst the trees.
I decided to try my hand at painting the picture. In Wichita, the Wichita Art Museum is sponsoring an exhibit of amateur (and real) artists, and anyone can enter. I decided to try my hand at a picture and if it was good enough, I would enter it in the show. So I worked on it, and this is what I came up with.
I am pretty pleased with the results.
