| 53. Utterly ridiculous and nausea inducing. And really bad art besides. |
|
The composition, the colors, the elements of the painting (horse, roses, bridge, cityscape, etc.) all horribly amateurish and unaesthetic. The figure of Obama is just insulting -- I mean, what the hell is with the belt buckle in his hand, is he about to drop trou? Not to mention, his arms are not in proportion to each other.
This is something I'd expect from 8th grade girl with a bad crush -- something that should NEVER see the light of day. And frankly, sexualizing a political candidate like this picture does is just plain icky.
Just bad, bad, bad, all around bad, really awfully awful bad bad. No redeeming value whatsoever.
