Closer to The Democrats : Hillary Clinton by Stephen B. Whatley

The votes are coming in…in the USA the Mid-Term Elections yesterday are revealing that The Democrats have won a record number of seats in the House of Representatives, giving them overall control for the first time in 8 years.

 

Hillary Clinton who won the popular vote by 3MM votes in 2016 remains a devoted Democrat, encouraging US citizens to get out and vote. Seen here are details from a portrait tribute painted by British expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley that year. The portrait was published in online Election 2016 news coverage in The Guardian newspaper.

 

The artist has a great affection for the United States - and his portrait of Barack Obama was published in TIME in 2008.

 

The work of Stephen B. Whatley is showcased through a permanent art exhibit in London: his series of 30 paintings vibrantly charting the history of the Tower of London was commissioned in 2000 - and is reproduced throughout Tower Hill Underpass (outside Tower Hill Station, close to the Tower) - where Americans, amongst them many of his collectors, discover his work.
