I will give the Obamas this, they’ve captured essentially how I’ve viewed them from day one.

Well, Michelle should probably be holding a hay fork, but otherwise they’ve got it right.

Not true! The “artist” does paint caucasian ladies, as long as they are a severed head being held by a “lady of color”, with a knife in the other hand.

her artwork is amazing... and I’m not saying that from the viewpoint of an art-critic.

“Ms. Sherald only paints African-Americans.”

As is her right under Amendment I.

It’s a good picture except Michelle looks rather unhappy.

Michelle I guess suffers from depression (despite Obamacare), but the artist should have painted her as if in a happy mood for an official portrait.

I like the Obama portrait.

This is sort of like that “Emperor’s new clothes” tale. People are raving over her portrait ... compared to the other things this artist has done, this really sucks. There already are much better portraits of her, they should have chosen those.

The Spanish cleaning lady who "fixed" the Jesus fresco should have been commissioned instead.

The fundamental transformation of official presidential portraits...

That's about it for your legacy, douchebags.

Did you see the portrait? SO totally hideous. I read that at the unveiling today at the Natl Portrait Gallery the audience gasped and/or laughed. It’s THAT bad, and Michelle heartily approved. No one ever thought she had taste, anyway. But she’s really good with that racist stuff.

In a few years Michelle Obama needs to have a second portrait done - then a few years after that replace the first one...

Thanks for sharing the link - that's a much better painting of her as an official portrait....

https://images.fineartamerica.com/images/artworkimages/mediumlarge/1/first-lady-michelle-obama-wayne-pascall.jpg

I think Amy Sherald rendition of Michelle Obama was hostile. Our former First Lady is represented looking more like her daughter than herself - and the ‘whites and grays’ show her condemned for being ‘establishment’. Toward the bottom of the painting are the power stripes... more than in other works of this artist, but it's too campy.

It's an interesting work but disappointing. It won't survive the test of time. Michelle Obama deserves better.
