Commissioned by Michael Jackson and painted over a 17-year period, these unusual artworks were painted by David Nordahl. In them, the late King of Pop appears in a variety of intimate poses such as this one seemingly modelled on Michelangelo's David, with half naked cherubs surrounding the star
Ahhhh, I see the pan pipe in his garment.
It also interesting that Micheal is a grown, feminine looking white man in the painting and there is a sleeping black child at his feet, with white children tending both him and the black child.
I’m surprised that the child to his left shoulder doesn’t have a loin cloth— his adult self is covered and all the children are carefully positioned to hide identifiers... except the one that looks to be a female child.
I’ve never seen that painting but it certainly says a lot. He was messed up and his childhood must have really sucked, I don’t even want to think about it. Sad.
