    She inspires me. I haven't picked up even a sketch pad in ages but I'm facing health issues and her strength gives me hope. And I love the portrait!👍💝

    Yes, she is a talented artist; she painted my niece’s portrait, which is also displayed in this video (The young lady in the orange background, with the hat and shorts on)

      just stop rh this is a terrible painting its ok to say that it doesn't make you a bad person, this is what happens when you judge someone on the color of there skin and not the content of there character.

      This is a horrible painting of a not so beautiful person. It makes Michael look worse than he already is. If the painter is a professional then I need to take up painting.

    At first I didn't think much of Michelle Obama's portrait. However, after I looked at a higher resolution picture of it by itself I think it's fantastic! Good likeness, good style

    There is something very human about her paintings, I think she manages to capture a humble and graceful sense of emotions from her subjects. I'm by no means an art expert and I am a white woman, yet I find something relatable about her art.

      @erichill8755 2 года назад

      And everyone else knows it and that's why they're saying it's "exquisite" and has a "likeness" bc they know it doesn't and have to protect their ego that nothing can suck on their end.. Nothing can be funny for the other side of the politics to pick at lol.

    Michelle O bama is a strong muscular angry black woman with weight lifting arms and always with a scorn on her face . Who is that light grey woman with a wig and arms like an octupus? I don't know.

    Yes, Amy Sherald is a talented artist; but if I saw this portrait alone or among portraits of various other black females, I would never have guessed this was supposed to be Michelle Robinson Obama. The portrait of Barack Hussein Obama II by artist Kehinde Wiley does look like him, but all the background greenery makes me think he's sitting in poison sumac, oak or ivy.

    Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrant, Vermeer, Monet, Van Gogh,....etc. are all turning over in their graves. The people who like this type of art, know nothing about art. I would take your photo, use Photoshop to make it cartoony and sell it for $10.

  • @4evrnick
    @4evrnick 3 года назад

    It’s like a really bad Gustav Klimt knock off. The composition is horrible. What’s the message that she’s trying to convey? That she wants to go back to the era of post-WWl German modern art… or that she’s never had an original thought in her head? Check and check. Bad taste on display… the fact that she’s been made to look more white is icing on the bad art cake.

    Both pictures are flat and lifeless. As for Michelle O's that is not a first lady portrait. That is a picture of someone that they think is doing a Vogue cover shoot. I have seen high school students do better in art class. They at least try to shade and put depth into their work.
