BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!
You won't see this on CNN! - BREAKING NEWS!!!! This newly discovered, discarded cigarette package ( I found it on the ground just outside my favorite Chinese corner food store ) is more important than you might think at first glance! Yes, behind the Chinese cigarette package is a an acrylic portrait that I am currently working on, but DO NOT BE DISTRACTED! Click on the photo to enlarge it and look at the chinese characters in the top row of lanterns. What they say is nothing short of remarkable!!! They say, "National state secret: American president Barack Obama was NOT BORN IN AFRICA, he WAS BORN IN SHANGHAI." I wanted to be the first to break this news! I will be emailing my good buddy Donald Trump immediately!!! I felt, however, that my dear blog readers should be the first to know. Thank you all and good smoking!

Great job on the portrait, David. The cigarette package would look good in a still life. (I'm not commenting on the other issue.)
As they say in the old movies, "Smoke 'em if you've got 'em!" Thanks for the tip, I knew a creative, intelligent person such as yourself would ferret (no pun intended, The Donald!) out the truth of the matter.
hahaha funny, I think he's actually from the Philippines, doesn't he look Asian..kinda?
Carol, That's why I pick up discarded cig. packs...for future still life paintings. This one was a real find!
Rhonda, Call me the ferret of "truth" and the American Way!!!!!!
Frank, I say he looks Asian with a touch of elephant with those big ears. But that aside, he's one intelligent and I believe fantastic president. Think there might be a touch of Swedish in his eyes?
I think he is from Germany...you know the GI´s over here are always after us German women.....
I think he is a horrific president. But that is a pointless road to go down. LOL The portrait though? She is beautiful, David!!
Watch out David - Your breaking news may go viral!

Great art,love your portraits and sketches and the step by step progress of each.
Thanks for breaking that news, Dave! It's about time SOMEONE told the truth! I hafta admit tho, I was quite distracted by the background of that cig pack. Couldn't you find something less alluring? ;-))
Cynthia, Deutsch?! sehr interessant!!!
Thank you, Autumn! A president is in the eye of the beholder.
Anon., I may be in trouble now!
Rodger from the great continent of Africa, Glad you like my step-by-steps. Thanks for following my blog.
Hey Mike! I hear you are coming to Sacto and UA in Autumn. We need to get together!
Fantastic portrait ....but I do not understand Chinese :p.....
I would love to attend your portrait workshop....Is one happening anytime during the end of this year ? And have you published any books on portraits and ur techniques ?
Yikes! you mean our pres has to produce yet another birth certificate? - not when they also want a death certificate of the other guy! agree with you that he is one cool president :) Love the cig packet - and the background -more so :) Looking forward to the still life.
As a Canadian I get why everyone wants to claim the guy. Our guy is not that popular.
You are a funny man. Great portrait.
Hey Donald. David has some more really vital news for you. But sadly he beat you to the punch oh yes he did. So now it's his turn to feel proud.
Cheers from Toronto,
Barbara
Shirupa, I have workshops every month, and announce them through my email newsletter. I have not produced a portrait booklet yet but definitely am thinking about that in the near future.
Meera, yes!...we haven't seen a death certificate of that other dude. Good point!!!
Barbara, I am as proud as a peacock!!!!
