POST # 17

The artist I chose to was Shepard Fairey. Shepard Fairy is an extremely famous portrait artist who creates many nice portraits. One of his famous portraits is the one displayed below. This is a picture of President Barack Obama with the words, HOPE and PROGRESS. This portrait shows many S.P.R.I.T.E categories, such as social, and political. The first social aspect of this portrait is that it was made to Barack's people. It can also be seen socially because it is letting it be known that our country has hope, and will progress.. The politically feature of this portrait is that he is the President of the United States and it is encouraging him. It is also letting it be known that our country has. As you can see, Shepard did a fantastic job in displaying messages and providing strong encouragement with only using two words. The image of Barack Obama shows social and political evidence.
