FAREWELL TO A GREAT PRESIDENT!




During President Obama's inaugural address, I took some screen shots off the tv and made these drawings.   They hardly do him justice, but I wanted to pay tribute to a brilliant, elegant and devoted public servant.  This was a class act that we won't be seeing again for a very long time.

Hi Myrna,
Great likenesses. What is the writing/letters? you have on the pieces?

A wonderful way to honor him and to deal with the sad prospect of the next four years. JeanneWaiting for the Tweet. He will belittle and degrade her in 140 characters or less. Waiting...

The best 8 years in a long, long time. I love the sketches!

Expressive sketches! I really like the 'words' /writings too-- captures how elegant and thoughtful he always was in expressing himself! So grateful for the 8 years he gave the country and the world! Hoping for the best in the coming years.

Wonderful work! And I agree that he is an elegant, kind, intelligent man with a sense of humor - who will be missed by many.
