Wow, He Can Draw Toooo!!!!

Barack Obama can draw pretty well. He drew this "doodle" for Neurofibromatosis, Inc., a charity organization that auctions celebrity doodles on Ebay to raise money. This doodle was done by President-elect Obama in April 2007 while he was running for the presidency. He made this "doodle" specifically for the organization and it set a record for the highest sale of a celebrity doodle. It sold for $2,025.

He is by no means a Picasso or Rembrandt but he draws like everything else he does - with clarity, charm, and a simple humility.

From left to right, Obama has sketched Senators Chuck Schumer, Harry Reid, Dianne Feinstein and Edward Kennedy in Senate chambers.

I only have one problem with this sketch and I can't really say why but those columns in the background have got to go!!
