I painted "Alvina's Rainbow" at a time when my mother-in-law was dying. She had a tube in her throat in order to breathe. I told her I would paint a rainbow for her if I could hear her voice again. She nodded OK. I painted her a rainbow. She had the tube removed and she spoke again. Shortly therafter she passed away, but not without a smile on her face and in the presence of her rainbow.
