Recent paintings have moved into modern times with the use of Wall Street and other American structures as part of the story.

The Golden Parachute is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but the painting concept predated the unfortunate circumstances that it depicts.

Birth of a Nation uses the arches at Mt. Vernon as inspiration.

The arches in Starting Point should be familiar to any student at the University of Georgia.
