I remember Dad doing this painting and I really liked it, but then he put some kind of fixative that discolored it. Maybe the fixative was old or somehow not what he intended.

I decided after much reflection that he would appreciate my effort to revive the painting to something approaching its original brilliance. I must confess I was the one who painted the red.
