"Wyoming Peonies"

"Wyoming Peonies"
 

This painting came about as we were visiting our families in WY for my dad's 80th birthday, and on our way back home to New Mexico, we always stop in Laramie to visit my husband's father's grave site.  It is in a beautiful cemetery that is very close to the University of Wyoming, and  you can even see the stadium where my father in law played football.  Close to my father in law's grave was a beautiful bush of peonies.  I asked my husband if he thought it would be disrespectful to photograph the flowers, and we both agreed that it would be fine, so I started taking photos. And this painting is the result. 
So while I painted "Dia de los Muertos" in memory of my father, this is my painting in memory of my father in law: Marlin Smith.
