Twitter users noticed something about Amy Sherald's portrait of Michelle Obama
washington examiner ^ | February 12, 2018

Twitter users noted on Monday morning that Amy Sherald's portrait of former first lady Michelle Obama resembled someone else, not its muse.

The former first lady's painting was done by Sherald, a Baltimore-based artist who won the Gallery's 2016 Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition.

"As you may have guessed, I don't think there's anybody in my family who's had a portrait done, let alone a portrait that will hang in the National Gallery," Obama told attendees.

"I am a little overwhelmed, to say the least," she added. "I am humbled. I am honored. I'm proud, but most of all, I am so incredibly grateful to all of the people who came before me in this journey — the folks who built the foundation on which I stand."

She has the arms of an NBA seven-footer!

And, those ample hips and thighs are missing.

Apparently, the “artist” who painted the 0bama portrait is fond of depicting black women cutting off the heads of white women - I kid you not:

I guess she was trying so hard to get the arms right that she forgot about the face ....

And in fact, if you look at other paintings by Amy Sherald, she puts a lot of time into making the clothes vivid and engaging, but skimps on the faces.

Not really somebody you'd want to paint your official portrait.

Obama is so vile. Look at the artist he chose to paint his picture. And there is no way Obama didnt know this, I’m sure he chose this demented person to send a message.

Is it possible this is how Michelle imagines herself?

Mooch's painting looks like a Haitian Primitive.

Or maybe not.

It looks nothing like Michelle Obama plus the dress doesn’t look like something she would wear. I give it an F.

". . . . Her role on The Wire led to her current work as the leader of a Baltimore community initiative called ReWired for Change."

Case closed.

Not the first to abuse artistic license to improve Moochie's appearance.

The hate-filled leftists spent 8 tiresome years trying to convince us that Moochie Obama is a natural beauty with good taste and judgement
when everyone could see that she is none of those.

Now they are enraged that we actually have a genuinely beautiful First Lady who demonstrates her poise, good taste, judgement and character every day.

They just can't stand it!

Here are three Vogue covers of Photoshop© Moochie Obama showing us how the Obama sycophants wished she looked.
These are the real Vogue covers as printed - I haven't altered them other than to reduce in size.
To check it out just search "Michelle Obama Vogue Covers".

If Vogue didn't have her name printed right there on the cover photo you wouldn't know who this thin stranger was supposed to be!

It does not show her deep dark evil soul like her real eyes and face do.
That’s why it does not look like her.

Mike: “I am a little overwhelmed, to say the least,” she added. “I am humbled. I am honored. I’m proud, but most of all, I am so incredibly grateful to all of the people who came before me in this journey — the folks who built the foundation on which I stand.”

But Mike, your husband was the one who said, “You didn’t build that.” Remember?

I thought that big swirling dress was kind of a dig.
