President Obama rocks my world. He's forward-looking and creative and now he's bringing those two attributes to bear on the White House Art Collection. With Michelle he is bringing new work to the White House, the likes of which have never been seen before. No more stuffy 19th century portraits for our 21st century President and his wife. Read the entire article here. (Thanks to Gordon Bruning for clueing me in to this article). Some of my very faves are now in the White House; Richard Diebenkorn, Robert Rauschenberg, and Louise Nevelson just for starters. I am excited by this as is the rest of the art world. Finally! We abstract painters have a voice in the Highest Office.

So now when you are asked "what do you paint?" You can say, "oh abstracts, just like the ones in the White House!"
