Take Us to The Stars

0 Loves

by MaryOilPortraitArtist


A fantastical imagined portrait of former US President JFK with his son on his lap looking at a future toy rocket, seated both in reality, and also on a glowing moon behind them. This is a narrative imagining, and foreshadowing, of JFK's putting the US on the path to landing on the moon, though he would never live to see these results of his efforts. A 5X enlargement of this painting hangs in the Hall of Nations at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.
