...Sources say artist Kehinde Wiley — who painted the former president before a background of greenery and flowers — has studios in China and produces most of his work there.
“It’s his base of operation,” said art critic Charlie Finch, who has known Wiley and appreciated his talent since they were students at Yale. “He has dozens of assistants working for him.”
While Obama sat for Wiley for several hours, the portrait may have been sent to China to be completed.

Yeah, and Obama’s portrait should be hanging in the White House’s outhouse to be used if a toilet paper shortage re-occurs.

Sounds good to me. Both were losers. I fear for the Trump portrait. The stinking dims will probably put it on an FBI firing range for practice of the leftist FBI.

Given the loathing of President Trump, won’t surprise me if they hold a ceremony on White House grounds to publicly burn his. The loonies are burning/tearing-down everything else these days!

I hope everyone remembers how happy they are today when the next president removes Trump’s portrait to the bathroom. Because - you know this is coming

CNN did not mention Obama's portrait because they did not want to disclose Obama's portrait location in the White house:
