George Zimmerman, who sold his first painting on eBay for a whopping $100,000, is at it again.
And this time his subject is the woman who charged him with second-degree murder: Special Prosecutor Angela Corey.
The painting, a swirl of bright red and yellow, shows Corey with her fingers pinched.
The caption, in all caps, says, "I have this much respect for the American judicial system - Angie C."

Kinkade is dead.

Well, then, I guess that little scam came to a screeching halt, now didn’t it?
It improves the chances that you will have to see one of his prints almost every place you go. ugh!
One thing you have to say is, “George is pretty good with a brush”. That painting, if he actually painted it himself, is not all that bad.

He's actually pretty good with a brush.................
He's actually pretty good with a brush.................
(At an astronomical expense for a top-grade lawyer, that is.)
I think he has invented a new genre of painting style....
It will go down in the art history books of the 21st century...
Liberal art professors and assorted lefties heads exploding all over.
More like a poster no? The guy can make some more gelt doing this if he wants.
Actually, looks like he’s moderately proficient with Photoshop and a Paint-by-Numbers kit.
I wonder if GZ actually collected the $100K on the first painting?
It’s definitely good work. Kinda Picasso-Van Gogh-Lautrec-esque..................
I almost spit up my coffee on that joke (he shouldn’t have shot that kid . . . ) Thanks for starting my day with a laugh! :)
No, I actually think it’s ‘artistic’.
Now, what I want to know is: Did he actually paint it, or was it ‘ghost-painted’?.......................
I don’t get it...............

....what we have here is a Paradigm Shift.....
A paradigm shift (or revolutionary science) is, according to Thomas Kuhn, in his influential book The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962), a change in the basic assumptions, or paradigms, within the ruling theory of science.
It is in contrast to his idea of normal science. According to Kuhn, "A paradigm is what members of a scientific community, and they alone, share" (The Essential Tension, 1977).
Unlike a normal scientist, Kuhn held, "a student in the humanities has constantly before him a number of competing and incommensurable solutions to these problems, solutions that he must ultimately examine for himself" (The Structure of Scientific Revolutions).
Once a paradigm shift is complete, a scientist cannot, for example, reject the germ theory of disease to posit the possibility that miasma causes disease or reject modern physics and optics to posit that aether carries light.
In contrast, a critic in the humanities can choose to adopt an array of stances (e.g., Marxist criticism, Freudian criticism, Deconstruction, 19th-century-style literary criticism), which may be more or less fashionable during any given period but all regarded as legitimate.
Since the 1960s, the term has also been used in numerous non-scientific contexts to describe a profound change in a fundamental model or perception of events, even though Kuhn himself restricted the use of the term to the hard sciences. Compare as a structured form of Zeitgeist.
It looks like ‘pop art’ to me and so far I think it’s pretty good.
It’s missing horns.
