What's the story behind Michelle's portrait? |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 8
|
I don't particularly like that one either |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 11
|
It looks chalky. Her skin looks gray. Wtf. |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 17
|
I guess that's just her style |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 19
|
Thanks. It works when the background is bold or vibrant |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 22

|
Feb 12th 2018 | 18

looking @ the other pictures, the shift away from realism is welcome |

I hope he donates that masterpiece to the Kremlin. |

ftr, i like both. |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 36

|
Feb 12th 2018 | 37

Her portiraits? |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 45
|
Gray skintone is her trademark, but the backgrounds and clothing |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 47
|
Yup. I was surprised she went with pale blue for the background. |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 50
|
Agreed |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 53
|
She worked directly with her personal stylist. |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 62

Right. |
|
Feb 13th 2018 | 121

|
Feb 12th 2018 | 46

|
Feb 12th 2018 | 48
|
Michelle's head is too small. Also I would have preferred |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 49

Aside from grayscale, Amy Sherald's other trademark is |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 61
|
I think the poses were poor choices in both instances |
|
Feb 12th 2018 | 54

not into them but if the Obamas legit like them, it's what matters |
