* Note also that the photographs of these paintings were from an inferior camera. Some were taken on-the-run with Lindsborg owners of Lydia's art while I was visiting for a few days to check up on Peaceful Acres ("The Old Deere Farm"), never realizing then that I would be using these photographs on a website later in life.
