The Orator: President Obama


0.0 x 0.0


Stoneware Ceramic, 10”w. x 15”h. x 10”d., 2011 A true orator is one who through the power of speech can bring hope and from which will come the courage to do what the “Nay-Sayers”, say is impossible. Proverbs 28:19: “For lack of a vision the people perish”. I see our President as an ordinary human being with all the foibles, but like the prophets of old, one who has been given a magnificent calling to bless the people with a vision they can base their lives upon.
