This painting was originally commissioned by Boyd and Robert Corbett. These two brothers were actively working to support Ken and his art. The painting they decided to personally commission was of Joseph and Hyrum Smith. Their heritage is through Hyrum Smith. Much has been said about the amazing relationship Joseph and Hyrum had for each other as they brought about the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Here it was a set of brothers, also with a very sweet relationship, who shared this project.
