I live five blocks from the White House. I painted what they are building on the South Lawn.
As a DC painter working out of a studio near the White House since 2003, I couldn't ignore what went up on the South Lawn this week. Went out the other day to see it in person, camera in hand. Finished the painting last night. Inspired by George Bellows' boxing paintings from the early 1900s — felt like the only appropriate response. https://www.danaellyn.com/p/fight-night.html
