- <p> In painting the official White House portraits of Ronald
- and Nancy Reagan, unveiled last week, artist Aaron Shikler
- didn't always please his sitters. First, Reagan's head was "too
- imposing," says the painter, and the ex-First Lady "wanted the
- eyes open more." He started over, making Reagan "more smiley,
- less intense -- more what he's all about." Depicting Nancy was
- easy because "her features are pronounced and clear-cut. There
- are no subtleties." Exactly.
