Happy Holiday.
No writing on weekends, or holidays apparently. Just to note President #44 Barack Obama was born August 1961 and was president from 2009-2017. This gorgeous official portrait was painted by one of my favorite artists, Kehinde Wiley in 2018. Kehinde is from Los Angeles and was born in February, 1977. I visited his exhibit at SFMOMA a few years ago and am thinking about writing more about him or his work before the end of the month, but we’ll see.
Enjoy your weekend!
