What did the SECOND painting depict? There were TWO paintings-the family portrait used in the first 3 seasons,and the other,used in the latter half of season 3,beginning with the 2-parter where Florida and family and friends got the news that James had been killed,and from then on.

Funny thing, I was just moments ago reading about those paintings on IMDB, and then saw your post. Here's the explanation from IMDB:

"During the first three seasons that John Amos was with the show, the closing credits showed a portrait of the Evans family painted by J.J. After Amos was killed off, a mural that J.J. painted for the local bank was shown. During the final season, a painting of the cast was shown during the opening credits and it morphed into a live shot of the cast."
