  Excited that my gouache on paper painting "A Walk With Obama" has been included in the new Gouache Paintings Collection on Saatchi Art. Barack and Michelle Obama were recently seen dancing with Bruce Springsteen at his concert in Barcelona. Michelle was onstage with Bruce, The E Street Band, Patti Scialfa, and Kathleen Sue Spielberg (Kate Capshaw) during the song Glory Days. Barack was offstage hanging out with Steven Spielberg. Megan Wright , Senior Curator at Saatchi Art put the collection together and writes: "When artists seek the richness of opaque color but the fluidity of water-based paint, they turn to gouache. Discover the unique charm of the medium in this expertly-curated collection." This artwork and a group of my recent works on paper will be featured in my next open studio on May 13th from 5-9 PM.

From NPR: "Former first Lady Michelle Obama knows not everyone is motivated by her famous quote from her 2016 DNC speech. In fact, she knows some voters have been downright frustrated with her call to "go high."  In her new book, "The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times," Obama acknowledges a generational rift in views over the pace of societal change and political action, in addition to opening up about other deeply personal details on how she's coped with changes – both in public, and in private. Generational shifts are a theme throughout the former first lady's latest book, which strikes a different tone from her 2018 book, "Becoming." In her first memoir, Obama peeled back the layers of her and her family's personal story, giving the world an intimate view. While "The Light We Carry" includes plenty of personal details, it serves as more of a guidebook in which Obama uses her own lived experiences to answer question...

"So much has changed so quickly. And if any of you are confused or scared or angry—or just plain overwhelmed—I just want you to know that you aren’t alone. I am feeling all that, too. And I have a few things I want to say about it." - Michelle Obama

Full text and Video of First Lady Michelle Obama’s remarks to the Democratic National Convention on Sept. 4 in Charlotte, as prepared for delivery. photo by Doug Mills for The New York Times Thank you so much, Elaine…we are so grateful for your family’s service and sacrifice…and we will always have your back.  Over the past few years as First Lady, I have had the extraordinary privilege of traveling all across this country. And everywhere I’ve gone, in the people I’ve met, and the stories I’ve heard, I have seen the very best of the American spirit.  I have seen it in the incredible kindness and warmth that people have shown me and my family, especially our girls. I’ve seen it in teachers in a near-bankrupt school district who vowed to keep teaching without pay.  I’ve seen it in people who become heroes at a moment’s notice, diving into harm’s way to save others…flying across the country to put out a fire…driving for hours to bail out a flooded town. And I’...

Photo by Greg Bryan Christina Green’s parents, Roxanna and John, and her brother, Dallas, at her funeral service. Dear parents, Like so many Americans all across the country, Barack and I were shocked and heartbroken by the horrific act of violence committed in Arizona this past weekend. Yesterday, we had the chance to attend a memorial service and meet with some of the families of those who lost their lives, and both of us were deeply moved by their strength and resilience in the face of such unspeakable tragedy. As parents, an event like this hits home especially hard. It makes our hearts ache for those who lost loved ones. It makes us want to hug our own families a little tighter. And it makes us think about what an event like this says about the world we live in – and the world in which our children will grow up. In the days and weeks ahead, as we struggle with these issues ourselves, many of us will find that our children are struggling with them as well. The questions my daughter...
