This portrait was inspired by Barack Obama's speech accepting the Democratic nomination for President, at the Democratic Convention, delivered on August 28th, 2008, at Invesco Field stadium in front of an estimated 84,000 people. Watching on television, I used my iPhone to capture images from the speech which then formed the reference photos used to create this portrait.
Wearing one of my Inauguration T-shirts, I met with Senator Dianne Feinstein at her office the day after the Obama Inaugural.
