I was touched by the success of Obama 4 years before as the first African American to reach the White House. Few months before he was able to repeat his triumph. His tweet " Another four years sky rocketed in twitter. I have no interest in politics, I am not an American after all. Yet i was inspired by the story of the man. In this project I used the Pyrography / wood burning to burn the Obama's face on the wood!! Funny as it sounds but i enjoyed it so much I recorded the steps from the copying of the face using carbon/graphite paper through the painting of the wood till finishing the piece. It took me two days to finish this piece. You can watch the video at: http://youtu.be/NHTfd2qVIB
