Behind the Blue Curtain
Every painting in Chronicle of an Unquiet Age documents the defining events, people, and issues that shaped its moment in history. Created in real time as events unfolded, each work serves as both an original oil painting and a historical record, reflecting the belief that the news of today is the history of tomorrow.

As late July 2025 progressed, attention increasingly turned toward what many believed had long been concealed by institutions and gatekeepers. Bureaucratic resistance, media narratives, intelligence controversies, and internal power struggles fueled demands for transparency. Behind the Blue Curtain reflects the belief that important decisions were being made out of public sight. Tulsi Gabbard Head of DNI calls for Obama to be prosecuted over 2016 Election claims. Social Media is calling this "Obamagate" and makes Watergate look like "Amateur Hour." December 9, 2016 is "the meeting that changed everything." The insurance policy to take down Trump failed and Brennan, Clapper and Comey are in the hot seat. Claims are these 3 fabricated intelligence to overthrow Trump and this was also to protect Hillary's email scandal. Texts and emails indicate Hillary Clinton directly coordinated with Obama White House to launch the Russia Hoax. Behind the Blue Curtain is now illustrating how the Democrats were working behind the scenes to collude with many others to impede the next duly elected President. House approves $9 Billion in Cuts package for PBS, NPR and USAID so now all are officially defunded. Trump files a $1 Billion lawsuit against Wall Street Journal, Newscorp, Dow Jones and Murock after their reporting trying to link Trump to Epstein. AG Pam Bondi meets with Ghislaine Maxwell to find uncharged third parties. Bondi also files to have Grand Jury testimony released because "corrupt politics is built on corrupt philosophy."

Maureen Comey daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey is fired by the DOJ. She is the Federal Prosecutor who filed key Court docs to keep the Epstein files under seal opening the door for Bondi to unseal and release them. Trump signs the Genius Act" to priotritize consumer protection and U.S. Dollar's reserve currency status and boost National security. Behind the Blue Curtain recasts the idea of a hidden curtain separating power from the public. The painting in real time preserves a period when many Americans felt the real story existed behind official presentation.
