Kehinde Wiley

This is where I confess that I love Kehinde Wiley's paintings.  I was in Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum recently and came across this glorious painting.  I wrote about it before, in 2016.  So, why do it again?

Well, since then, Wiley was selected to paint Barack Obama's wonderful Presidential portrait.  

And, this time as I approached the Atheneum, guess whose work was featured with a massive two-story banner?

    I, and the people at the Atheneum, agree with you about the wonderfulness of this portrait. Thank you for featuring it again.
