Have you ever imagined being a humble billionaire with a huge benevolent heart? If you did or if you have tried it out then you may also someday get to be immortalised into a painting and share the platform of greatness with many a prominent man or woman. We know and love Bill and Melinda Gates for their great hearts and their Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Artist Jon Friedman made a new painting which is now displayed at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C in its ‘Recent Acquisitions’ exhibition. The portrait highlights the couple’s humanitarian efforts and they are very honored. Others who have such paintings include Ted Turner, Malcolm Forbes Jr., Rupert Murdoch and Hugh Hefner.
