Here's a picture of Ricardo Barros taking a picture of Cornel West in front of the portrait I painted of him and then here's a picture of how it came out. The interview with Dr. West was on post racial America, how he feels about Obama, and spirituality. My favorite quote out of it has got to be when they asked him "do you ever plan on slowing down?" To which Cornel West answers..."I'm going to die in my boots, brother...I've been called to bear witness to truth and justice, and I intend to be faithful unto death."

Dear luv1,

Dr. West and I just reviewed your magnificent painting and youtube video. We were deeply moved by your art and love. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Please send a phone number that Dr. West can call you directly. We would also love to have a signed print.
