A white Obama on a black background.
See? No difference! Same as if youd paint Biden black on a white back ground.
They would be STUNNING together!
Just sayin and thanks for sharing.
I saw a great one of George Floyd today on Cap Hill in Seattle.

(53,410 posts)Some very talented people were inspired. The funny thing is they painted the portraits from what looks like a selfie. Hell be remembered more because of those portraits.
Thanks for seeing some of the symbolism of the colors I used. I never forget that President Obama is half White. He belongs to all of us.

(53,410 posts)President Obama has great wit and is genuine in his facial expressions. Trump has no humor, no heart, no soul, and it shows in his face. His grins just make me think that he purchased those teeth. Otherwise they would look like his son Erics cruddy gums and teeth.
