| Geese at Dawn oil on panel - 17"x 12" 1963 Collection of Jim Seger Newton, Kansas |
| The fraternal uncle of the Nicodemus cousins, Uncle Billy, had some old oil paints lying around the house. He offered them to Seger, and this is the result -- the twelve-year-old's first oil painting. Little did he know he would end up in Delaware, where geese are abundant, and everyone paints them. |
