Obey!

Latest Time Magazine Cover by Shepard Fairey

This is also a great moment for us Illustrators, Graphic Designers, and artists in general. Why you ask? Well simply because the amazingly talented Shepard Fairey has made art and US history with his Obama posters. Recently his famous "Hope" poster was acquired by the US National Portrait Gallery, and became part of the permanent collection. It was unveiled and put on display at the Gallery three days ago(January 17, 2009).

Here are some great videos including an interview of Shepard on the Colbert Report.


Enjoy and get inspired!

Viva Obama!

Art by Shepard Fairey

What an emotional and inspirational day this has been! It has inspired me even more to meet my goals and dreams as a person and an artist.

With that said, I just want to say that we've come long ways with this blog, and I hope we can reach new levels this year. Challenging ourselves, helping each other, and really uniting to make a message and our art come across as inspirational, united, and moving.

I look forward to future galleries, zines, events, and projects with all of you. As a blog and group, I hope we can reflect in our own ways the ideals and feelings of this historical positive movement of hope and change.

Viva Obama!
