It makes me sad that we could only have them for 8 years but I was hopeful with Joe and Kamala. To lose them both as leaders was a terrible blow to me and my family (and the decent people in this country and the world). But art has h=its own redemptive powers and this art will linger in our hearts for a long time.

(11,266 posts)7. It feels like portraits in recent years have been . . . not great
They feel like being more about the artist than the subject.
But this is genuinely great. Amazing job. Captures the subjects while still showing off the talent of the artist. Really well done.
