Barack Obama

Found a new home
Proudly hanging in Manhattan, New York City, NY
in the home of two Obama Fans.

The third Monday in February is known as Presidents' Day, an American federal holiday honoring two great American presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
I'm celebrating BARACK OBAMA as the 44th president of the USA.

Acrylic on ultra smooth portrait grade canvas.
Dimensions: 28x36 cm (11x14 inches)
Inspired by Andy Warhol's designs and several uplifting "YES WE CAN" posters.

excellent work Olga!

Artist Reply: Yjank you Steward! It's hanging in the apartment of my daugher and son in law in Manhattan, next to a portrait of JF Kennedy! ~Love and Light, Olga

Nice rendering of a fantastic politician. He has been dogged by so many problems: lingering wars, a rotten economy, fierce opposition. I hope you are right, "Yes we can."

Artist Reply: I hope so too David! My daughter and son in law are big fans of Barrack. They have this portrait hanging in their Manhattan NY. apartment. Wishing you a creative day! Love and Light, OLGA
