I will auction the original painting on ebay to raise money for the Ron Paul 2012 Campaign. All the profits minus costs will be donated to the campaign or Revolution PAC. Any profits made from prints will also be donated. I also plan to auction the drawing and color study if there is interest.
72″ x 32″ Oil on canvas. Signed within the portrait.
The painting is now up for auction on webstore.com

Good job man, this thing is amazing! I am particularly smitten with that portrait. It is such an expression of real hope and undying optimism. Love this.
Thanks for the love. I was trying to capture the spirit of hope that a President Paul represents. I plan to do other pieces soon.
But a smiling visitor here to share the love (:, btw great design .
