"Family on the East Green" is a striking Bernard Jackson painting that uses the artist's highly textured Bernart Hue Caulking technique. The artwork, viewed from behind, depicts a foursome of young Black golfers—two figures in red outfits and two in pink—walking side-by-side with their equipment across a vibrant green course. The use of bold and thick colors, almost a sculptural application of paint create a sense of palpable energy and unity. This scene metaphorically represents how families navigate the course of life together; while each person carries their own set of challenges (represented by their unique bags and clubs), their shared journey ensures they all work towards the same goal: reaching the green as one cohesive team. The bright, vivid style evokes feelings of togetherness, empowerment, and the collective pursuit of success
