About the Book
Although the figure is central to my work, there is another object that plays an equally important role. The simple paint brush.
Why the paint brush ?
Because the paint brush is what transforms splashes, dribbles, and drops of color into recognizable images.
It helps to make the invisible visible and is the star of all 96 pages of paintings of this book.

About the Creator
Jonathan Franklin
Oak Park, IL
As an artist for over forty odd years, my biggest gig so far has been as the official White House Portraitist. During the past two years, I have had the privilege of painting our DearLeader over a couple dozen times looking his authoritarian best in all kinds of remarkable settings. And now, after much anticipation, I have finally assembled those paintings into a 48 page full-color book that includes personal commentaries, as well. It has been truly an inspiration to be so close and present with the man with the golden touch, who in every sense of the phrase, is Making America Great Again.
