Granddaddy's Shotgun

Granddaddy's shotgun was a scene I actually set up in the living-room of my first home. I used a pole-lamp to light the props so I could photograph them. As the painting progressed, I would walk from the studio to the living-room to check on tiny details and to see how shadows fell. I found the light had been moved into the kitchen on one such trip. When I asked Sharon why she moved the light, her expression was priceless. We both had a good laugh, and I went back to work.
