Richard Earl Thompson (September 26, 1914 – August 6, 1991) was a 20th-century American Impressionist painter who began his career as a commercial illustrator in Chicago, Illinois.  In 1959, he broke away from a career as a commercial illustrator, which began in 1933, to pursue Impressionist painting.  He was a prolific painter, often compared stylistically to Monet, and art critics agreed Thompson was a master of color and light.  "Thompson's great appreciation for nature is observed in his landscapes that represent a point in time that has both a sense of history and eternity.  The artist found beauty all around him; It was as nearby as his favorite fishing hole or a neighbor's backyard.  In these simple yet intimate places, Thompson reminded others to take time to stop and take another look."

The Problem We All Live With is a 1964 painting by Norman Rockwell.  It is considered an iconic image of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States.  It depicts Ruby Bridges, a six-year-old African American girl, on her way to William Frantz Elementary School, an all-white public school, on November 14, 1960, during the New Orleans school desegregation crisis.  Because of threats and violence against her, she is escorted by four deputy U.S. marshals; the painting is framed such that the marshals' heads are cropped at the shoulders.  On the wall behind her is written the racial slur "nigger" and the letters "KKK"; a smashed and splattered tomato thrown against the wall is also visible.  The white protesters are not visible, as the viewer is looking at the scene from their point of view.  The painting is oil on canvas and measures 36 in high by 58 in wide.

Most have continued their artistic work independently from the early 1970s onwards.
