Summary
Artist Sarah Boardman said her 41-year art career is at risk after Donald Trump accused her of distorting his likeness in a 2019 portrait displayed in the Colorado State Capitol.
Trump called for its removal in a March 23 Truth Social post, prompting Republican lawmakers to have it taken down the next day.
Boardman denied political bias and said the portrait was pre-approved. She reported a sharp decline in business and backlash, though her family and supporters defended her online.
Boardman had also painted Barack Obama and George W. Bush.
It’s not as good a likeness as Bush’s or Obama’s paintings she made, but it’s not far off and he looks healthier and younger in her painting than in real life, but whatever dude.
not orange enough, so it doesnt look like him, also the neckgina thing hes hiding.
