KSB2424 3,082 Posted February 13, 2018 Gallery of presidential portraits: http://i.magaimg.net/img/2mqn.jpg Thats what I was trying to convey. The official portrait should be timeless and more conventional. I actually like the artwork of Obama, its sorta cool. Just not for the Official presidential portrait. Itd be like taking your senior picture for your yearbook in a tuxedo tee shirt and sunglasses. Sure thats funny but damn dude, for your senior pic? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SenatorRock 708 Posted February 13, 2018 did you find the one with Moochelle & her schlong yet? was just about to post it here but not sure how strict Mike is.

Cdub100 3,366 Posted February 14, 2018 So I learned today the "artist" who used photoshop to make his "painting" is also know for putting sperm in all his "paintings" Obamas sperm is on the left side of his head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EternalShinyAndChrome 2,492 Posted February 14, 2018 It's so awesome that those portraits are absolutely terrible. They will now be the laughingstocks for time immemorial. That's so great. You just know they're embarrassed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EternalShinyAndChrome 2,492 Posted February 14, 2018 Thought Michelles was very well done....classy. Didnt really like Barracks.....it was...weird? Basically sitting in the bushes. Well done?

cyclone24 1,794 Posted February 14, 2018 Well done? It doesn't even ###### look like her. It's awful. Barack's is even worse. True...not the best look of her...but it was at least classy and somewhat normal. I dont know what the fock barracks is.....and side by side with all the other presidents ones...its comical. I dont want to sound like the “Trump eats chicken with a fork!” Morons....id say the same if it was trumps (which might be him middle fingering).... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Morons....id say the same if it was trumps (which might be him middle fingering).... Trumps should be in a neoclassical naziesque style. In a military uniform. Maybe something like the scene where Patton is in front of the flag in Patton. But more angular and harsh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peenie 1,690 Posted February 14, 2018 I think Obama sitting among flowers is fitting and describes his time in office perfectly. He was a weak and docile President. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,576 Posted February 14, 2018 The "artist" that did Michelle's only paints black people. Why do the Obamas do that every chance they get? Constantly stirring the pot of divisiveness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peenie 1,690 Posted February 14, 2018 Only minorities get that label. When white artists paint or draw people that look like them it's simply art but when a black artist draws people that look like them it's some sort of negative statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a white artist refuses to paint people of a different color they should be ostracized.
