American artist. </span> <span data-start-time='7250' data-end-time='16521'>His paintings and sculptures are the subject of art shows around the United States.</span> <span data-start-time='16521' data-end-time='22792'>The 46-year-old Wiley seems especially busy right now. </span> <span data-start-time='22792' data-end-time='33104'>His work is currently on display at shows on both the East and West coasts of the U.S. </span> <span data-start-time='33104' data-end-time='37333'>He has another show in Paris, France. </span> <span data-start-time='37333' data-end-time='43000'>And he is expanding artistic bases in Africa.</span> <span data-start-time='43000' data-end-time='54833'>Wiley shot to fame outside of the art world a few years ago, after he painted an official presidential portrait. </span> <span data-start-time='54833' data-end-time='57292'>It was historic. </span> <span data-start-time='57292' data-end-time='63854'>Wiley was the first Black artist to be commissioned for the work. </span> <span data-start-time='63854' data-end-time='70375'>He painted America’s first Black president, Barack Obama.</span> <span data-start-time='70375' data-end-time='81104'>In Wiley’s painting, Obama sits in a simple chair, his arms crossed, his body leaned a bit forward.</span> <span data-start-time='81104' data-end-time='90521'>Surrounding him is a colorful explosion of natural elements, like flowers and greenery. </span> <span data-start-time='90521' data-end-time='99250'>It was a powerful and untraditional representation for an historic presidency.</span> <span data-start-time='99250' data-end-time='107938'>Wiley said he is very proud of that work, noting the importance of that time in history.</span> <span data-start-time='107938' data-end-time='117292'>“I wonder if I will ever be able to do anything that lives up to the gravity of that moment,” he said. </span> <span data-start-time='117292' data-end-time='127167'>“Everybody wants to be seen in a number of different contexts ... but I mean, what a great project to be involved in.”</span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div class='control-buttons'><button
