“An official portrait of former first lady Michelle Obama was unveiled at the Smithsonian`s National Portrait Gallery Monday morning.
The painting was done by Baltimore artist Amy Sherald, who is known for her social justice painting style.
`Let`s just start by saying, `Wow,` again. Let me just take a minute. It`s amazing. Wow,` Obama said after the portrait was unveiled. The moment was met with a gasp and applause.
All presidents and first ladies have their portraits done and hung in the Portrait Gallery.”

With all due respect to the former First Lady, “Wow” my ass. Amy Sherald may be a preeminent social justice warrior, but she`s a pedestrian artist.
If I didn`t know who painted Michelle Obama I would have guessed he/she was a KKK sympathizer and not a social justice warrior, because the painting perpetrates the stereotype of the angry black woman. Michelle is depicted with a sullen expression, and her eyes look like the eyes of a dead fish.
Michelle may have pretended to be wowed by the painting, but when the abomination was unveiled there were audible gasps emanating from the shocked audience.
The woman in the official portrait looks nothing at all like Michelle, who the hell was the artist looking at when she was painting?
I have trouble coloring within the lines in a coloring book, but I could have rendered a more realistic portrait of Michelle with a painting brush sticking out of my ass.
There`s a special place reserved in hell for social justice warriors who dabble in painting.
