There Goes The Neighborhood - BBQ fundraiser in the backyard - New American Gothic. A group of gay friends hold a barbecue aids fundraiser in a Toni New England neighborhood. I painted this from life experience at a friends house in 1990. When someone asked about all the gays on the block. My friend answered: well there goes the neighborhood at least the real estate prices will go up. We were having vivid sunsets those years from Mount Saint Helens ash in the skies.
