Brother Joseph
8X10 print.From a pencil drawing on paper, scanned, then edited on my ipad, I added color and dimension to my original drawing, based on a photograph from a Smith Family Album. With the help of some aids, such as the actual vest owned by Joseph Smith that is a dead ringer for the one worn in my 1840s CDV and internet versions of a tie pin and military pin, I have answered any questions you might have of what the heck are we seeing in my Image of Joseph Smith. You will see that his glowing circle on the right of his lapel is turned into a carnation (yes, men wore flowers in their lapel as early as the 1840s), to the left of the carnation is an S Shaped tie pin, as I could see something like an S shape shining from his Silk Bow Tie (Joseph Smith sported such a silk bow ties in other works of art), and lastly to the left of the bowtie is a military pin I stole from the world wide web (changed 75% of it- so it's legal ;). Thanks to all who've supported me, I truly appreciate it!
