“In Wiley’s rendering, Judith is depicted as a black woman and Holofernes as a white woman.”
“Fans of the Obama portrait will recognize Wiley’s photo-realistic human figures, distinct colors and prominent use of floral backgrounds.”
“Wiley translates this image of a courageous, powerful woman into a contemporary version that resonates with fury and righteousness.”

His legacy with the Choom Gang is preserved at last! What an appropriate image to serve as memory of his reign.
Is it just me, or does Obama have six fingers on his left hand?
Somebody get Inigo Montoya!!!!!!
Venus flytraps would be more apropos.
I do like the ivy leaf hanging over the back of his chair. It looks like it has 3 leaves... It does have 3 leaves, as do several others in the mix. In other words, the entire patch is Poison Ivy.
The article says this is a “Biblical story.” This is not in the Bible. It is from the “Book of Judith,” which is fiction.
Not just once....more were painted.
From hand shape with his arms crossed over like that it’s the thumb tucked under. Sure makes it look like 6 fingers though.
Yeah, the ring is on the middle finger (”who does that?) and the thumb is on the wrong side of the hand. And they are calling his style of art photorealistic?
Has anybody googled “photorealistic” over there? Try Kunstler or Troiani if you want that kind of work.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about. The thumb of his left hand would be at the BACK (under his right elbow). What you are seeing as the thumb “tucked under” is just the meat of the outside of the left hand (the part you would strike with if you do a karate chop) bunching up (happens as you get older, and not just on your hands :-)
It’s still a crappy portrait, and I think it looks like a whole bunch of marijuana leaves around him...
Captain Obvious wants to get a word in here, but I told him that what he wanted to say is too obvious even for himself.
I also think it looks like the “artist” projected a photo onto the canvas and painted over it. Look closely at the bottom of the back legs of the chair, especially the one on the left - looks very odd to me.
The chair looks strange and also if you look at the bottom of Obo’s shoes, his feet are not grounded, just floating around. I think a high school student could have done a better job.
And that's why we mock him...deservedly so.
I was thinking this artist has more talent:
And that “look” of absolutely terrible, third-grade-appearing cartoonish “art” is exactly what I believe Obola DELIBERATELY left in the White House as his “legacy” for the next president.
Well, that it also displays his lack of culture (hatred for the American culture!) and lack of intelligence and propriety for history, culture, and tradition is both the cause and the symptom of his entire administration.
And the “cultural elites” in his mainstream media? Their prejudiced fawning attitude and adoration is all the more revealing by their reactions to these cartoons.
