Painting For The Sake Of It

I came across of a bit of scrap watercolor paper today....

 And a photograph I took last summer of the fountain outside of the Art Institute of Chicago....

And before I knew it the two became one, merged together in pen and paint...

For no particular reason at all....

A painting emerged.....

And this is what it was in the end.....

And also, in the beginning before one art became another.
