Lady Bird Johnson is the subject of Dawn Porter’s mesmerizing documentary, based on the subject’s own words.
Art Print - “The Greatest First Lady” is a remix of Amy Sherald’s original presidential portrait of Michelle Obama. It was painted as a benefit piece for the International Women’s Day event at Jolby & Friends, auctioned off for charity benefiting the Rose Haven Shelter for women and children. In order to share this piece with more of you, it was reprinted with Sherald’s blessing and enthusiasm! Expertly printed with an 11-ink color process on a smooth, enhanced archival matte paper creating rich blacks and vibrant colors by the Land Gallery in Portland, Oregon. Comes backed with chipboard and packaged in a protective sleeve.

This is a portrait of Michelle Obama as Rosie the Riveter. I love Michelle Obama, and I love the iconic picture of Rosie the Riveter, so it seemed appropriate to combine the two. Rosie was the symbol of women doing what needed to be done in a time of need, of women stepping up to plate and proving that they are more than capable of doing anything and everything a man can do, both in the workplace and at home. Michelle exemplifies what it is to be strong, smart, hardworking, and gracious. She was the perfect first lady, and to be honest, I think she'd make a fantastic president! (Too bad she has no interest in a political career - she would have had my vote all day, every day!) This portrait is available in 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, and 16x20 sizes. All of my prints are printed at a local print shop on 80 Lb bond paper. Please understand that my local print shop needs three business days turn around time on all orders, so it will be three to five days from the time you place your order, until I am able to pick it up and ship it to you. All 5x7 and 8x10 prints are shipped in reinforced cardboard envelopes. All 11x14 and 16x20 prints are shipped in reinforced cardboard tubes. All prints are unmatted and unframed. If you would like your print matted and/or framed, I am more than happy to do that for you, but please contact me about your request before making a purchase so I can create a custom listing for you. Thank you so much for supporting my small business. I love being able to create portraits of inspiring people, especially history's greatest achievers, thinkers, survivors, and heros. So I truly appreciate your willingness to support my art by purchasing one of my pictures.
