"I wanted to make an art piece of Barack Obama because I<br />
thought an iconic portrait of him could symbolize and amplify<br />
the importance of his mission. I believe Obama will guide<br />
this country to a future where everyone can thrive and I<br />
should support him vigorously for the sake of my two young<br />
daughters. I have made art opposing the Iraq war for several<br />
years, and making art of Obama, who opposed the war from<br />
the start, is like making art for peace. I know I have an audience<br />
of young art fans and I'm delighted if I can encourage<br />
them to see the merits of Barack Obama."<br />
