Michelle looks nice, doesn't have her normal RBF

I don't remember Obama having ET hands though

The man himself is drawn well, except for his left hand - it looks as it were a six-fingered hand with the pinkie tucked underneath.

Adding the plants looks just tacky. The light source doesn't match the president's and there's a severe lack of shading. It looks like a poor Photoshop job.

Is this going to be one of those times when you pretend not to have a plan until the last moment? And then turn out to really not have one?

Your first attempt was great. But can you make him fully disappear?

Michelle's portrait has an amateur air about it. As if it's a piece I could expect to see in a high-school or perhaps college artwork display.

I'm curious who these artists are - not that there's anything wrong with it, but I've got a hunch they were picked on other merits rather than talent.

Just need to add Sean Spicer hiding behind the bush and it's perfect.

He's going to get poison ivy. Honestly, the backdrop choice is just fucking weird and something just looks way off about him. Michelle's painting looks a lot better than she does, so good job there.

I like Barack's. Michelle's doesn't really look like her that much, but I do like the pop-art aesthetic of it.

I mean it's not like it matters that much anyway does it?

there's an enormous difference between the quality of obama's suit and the leaves around him. a difference so stark it causes one to wonder whether or not there were multiple artists, or whether the artist had taken a stock photo of obama and then painted over it. it looks like a photo taken in front of a green screen, you can even see the reflection on certain parts of his clothes. i don't see how someone could paint a photorealistic set of shoes and suit while doing such low-quality high school art project leaves.

the other one doesn't even look like the subject.

this is what happens when you hire someone based on race instead of merit.

Barack's is meh. He looks great for the most part, but the bushes are a strange addition.

Michelle's is beautiful, it just looks nothing like her.

It doesn't really matter though, just a way to honor those who serve in our highest office. If they want it to look a certain way, I think they're entitled to that. It's whatever.

Obama's background looks like a tablecloth you'd find at a retirement home.

Michelle's painting is just bad and looks like the work of someone who took oil paints as an elective.

Well, my point was that if they enjoy these paintings of themselves then fuck it. They literally chose them, so their placement in the Smithsonian is the definition of an honor. IMO obviously. Fair enough to disagree! Just a painting after all, lmao.

Obama's is okay. His hands are weird and the bush is... pointless, but the art itself isn't bad.

Michelle's is terrible. Looks like they got a high-school kid to do it or something. Doesn't look like her, plus an ugly dress and an ugly style of painting.

Michelle's looks like vector art we use to do back in high school.
