Marge's interest in art is reawakened when she finds some of her old paintings. After attending a class and developing enough confidence in her work, she enters the Springfield Art Fair. She wins. Her work catches the eye of Mr. Burns, who hires her to paint his portrait, a difficult task due to his ugliness. She paints a picture emphasizing Mr. Burns' flaws. The portrait humanizes him in the eyes of the public and he is forced to accept the painting as a success.
