THE ORANGE BRICK ROAD"
24" x 36" Oil - R.V. Harms 1990
The young man in the picture represents the first generation that has lived in North America that cannot expect to do as well as his parents. His parents' journey was optimistic, like Dorothy travelling the yellow brick road to Oz. He must travel along an orange brick road that is bumpy, on a bicycle that is awkward, uncomfortable and difficult to pedal.
