Spotted in gilsonrome’s photostream, this is one of the oddest murals that me have seen. On one side of the window we see Obama’s smiling face. On the other? His enthusiastic thumbs up. Location is listed as “McGee St., Berkeley”.
This handmade, painted sign for a bake sale has been sitting in our archives for a while. We were hoping to find more information about it before posting, but it is just too cute to wait any longer.
Susan Gepford send in a great painting “The original piece is 9×12. It’s mixed media with watercolor, acrylic, colored pencil, pastel primer, and pastel. Obama has allowed me to believe again that politics can be less about name calling and more about mature open debate, and I’ve really got my fingers crossed for tomorrow.”
In the rural town of Shickshinny, Pennsylvania there exists a field of hope. Together with 13 volunteers, Hilary Ross and her husband Jim Lennox built a giant version of the classic Shepard Fairey image. The painting took 60 hours to complete. Updated 11-02. Origanally spotted in a35mmlife’s photostream.
Spotted in stacymariedavis’ photostream. StacyMarieDAvis notes below her image: “I couldn’t help but add my own! I love how you can see the old painting below (which was a ghostbusters logo) but it almost looks like a peace sign”
Just received this message from an artist named Lichiban that we are happy to post: “I’m a Brooklyn-based visual artist from Hungary, and have been very much involved in supporting the Obama movement over here in BK through means that I could. I’m not a citizen so I can’t vote but I’ve been doing various fundraisers and Obama artwork to further the cause.”
