United States President Donald Trump today praised a Nigerian artist, Oyedele Adedokun Isaac (doks_art) for drawing a portrait of him.
The young artist drew a ballpoint portrait of Trump and took to his Twitter page on Sunday to tweet at the US president:
“This is my second portrait of President Trump. This time, I really want him to see it,” he tweeted.
Oyedele revealed that the 24×21 inches portrait took him about 70 hours to finish.
Check out the portrait:
The tweet by the Nigerian artist caught the attention of Donald Trump who responded in praise of the artwork and also encouraged him not to give up.

It’s nice to see Donald Trump impressed with something that came from someone from one of the “parasitic shithole countries”.
Hopefully, it doesn’t end at this and Oyedele gets commissioned for something big. That is what happens when you shoot your shot.
