The second of Michelle OBama looks nothing like her in fact I think it's rather insipid and colourless unlike he original.
Still it's subjective

I thought the one of the ex President was ok and not a bad likeness. It does look a little strange him being surrounded by leaves but I still like it.
The one of Michelle Obama is awful as she is a very beautiful woman and has darker skin, and the painting doesn't even look at all like her. The dress she's wearing is very nice and looks good on her but the neutral background colour takes attention away from the dress.
