Official Portrait Unveiling Of President Obama And Michelle Obama (Art responses Only)

[Wally]

Judge for yourself. I don't get the Wrigley Field thing?

 

[Wally]

Why is Barack Obama's portrait set at Wrigley Field? Some Chicagoans are asking

 

[Box Ox]

Whatever you think of the Obamas (I like them), you all know you thought those couldn’t really be the official portraits the first time you pulled out your phone and had a WTF moment. LOL

I wonder the chick is that sat in for Mrs. Obama. I challenge anyone to find any picture of her, (and there have been tens of thousands taken) that looks remotely like this.

I couldn’t help but think back to the 2012 story about the “amateur fresco restoration” and laugh when I saw Michelle’s painting. Especially since I seriously like both of the Obamas and have a stupid sense of humor.

 

[Wally]

I envy those with artistic talent, and all art has its place. Those portraits are not the type I think are worthy of the President.

 

[Wally]

Successful trolling by Obama.
cuckservatives everywhere are all worked up.
Come on people, it's art, smh.

Agreed, it is art, but do you stick the former leader of the free world in a patch of ivy?

It’s not distinguished enough as the portrait of a President of the United States should be, hanging in the National Portrait Gallery.

The artist (?) could have used a little darker color for Michelle. She is about 2 shades too light in the portrait.

 

[Oh Shoot]

They got Barry sitting in a patch of poison ivy, like he is sitting on the toilet. His feet are not connected to his leg. Looks like a third grader doing a paint by numbers painting. Moochell's portrait is of some other woman cause it sure ain't her. Her left forearm is about 3 feet long. She also looks Hispanic not black as they lightened her up. Her dress looks like a test sheet for printer head alignment. Did you see the look on her face when she tore the sheet off that painting. Her face says it all. I am sure that was not a pleasant ride home for Barry.

They chose the artists themselves. Fitting portraits for those two. I laughed at those two so hard last night I could not go to sleep. Left is fawning all over them, I guuss no one has the nerve to tell them how bad they really are. I am just glad it is a portrait of our ex president.

Barry was the 6 fingered man.

It all makes sense now.

I don't think they are worthy of the Smithsonian!

Stands out like a green thumb!

I heard there was a hidden meaning behind Mrs Obama's portrait, any one know what that is?

Maybe they only asked Joy Behar's and Whoopie's opinion!!

what are you suggesting?

 

[rod]

what are you suggesting?

Not suggesting anything -- just that in the portrait she is two shades lighter than she really is. a lot of people think she looks more Hispanic in the portrait than she does African-American.

 

[el blanco]

I think they are lousy portraits

of 2 seemingly decent people

 

[el blanco]

they should hang his portrait at the White House,

in the Green Room
