                   George W. Bush: From President to Painter

   by VOA News

   Former U.S. president George W. Bush has a new title to add to his
   resume: painter.
   The subjects of his paintings? World leaders - a theme he knows well.
   Bush's portraits go on display in his presidential library and museum
   in Dallas, Texas Saturday.
   The exhibit, titled "The Art of Leadership: A President's Personal
   Diplomacy," will feature his paintings of world figures he worked with
   during his presidency from 2001 to 2009, including Russian President
   Vladimir Putin, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Tibetan
   spiritual leader the Dalai Lama.
   Bush began his painting hobby two years ago. In an interview on NBC
   with his daughter Jenna Bush Hager, who works for the network,  Bush
   said although he does not think he is a great artist, "a whole new
   world has opened up" for him.
