Cosmic Dream with Checkerboard
artist: Romeo J. Taylor III

Although Romeo Taylor did not actually sign this work, it is very likely his. I purchased it with others he had signed, and the painting resembles his style and themes. Here, a dreamer in the lower left corner visualizes a copper-skinned woman emerging from a tunnel of light into a cosmic landscape where symbols of justice (the ancient Greek building resembles the Supreme Court of the US) and racial harmony (the checkerboard).
