OK: gawker needs to stop tagging shepard fairey with the 'art' tag and file him under the 'kitsch' or 'dreck' tags where he belongs, along with thomas kinkade and hummel figurines. the only surprising thing about this cover is that anyone who knows his work would be surprised by it.
Well, to be fair, he is playing with Obama’s remark on getting a family dog, when he said they might adopt "a mutt like me." I’m curious to know where Fairey pilfered the image for this one, because it’s clear by now that he’s a crappy draftsman with no compositional skill.
