“Life in Chaos” was painted as a contrast to “Life in Progress”. I painted life in progress while living for over 15 years in the Chicago area. It just seemed like life was full of social progress. Then in 2015 the bottom fell out. The beginning of the great divide. By 2016, following a spate of high-profile deaths of black Americans during encounters with police and protests by the Black Lives Matter movement and other groups, many Americans especially blacks described race relations as generally bad. And from my perspective it was back to 1968 in Philadelphia where I grew up. Forty-eight years later and the same crap all over again. How could that be?  When will we get over the skin color obsession in America. Man’s inhumanity to man because of the substance melanin.  Please educate yourself on the root of human prejudice and you will see the ridiculousness of  black, white, yellow or whatever.
