Obama killing all of his houseplants is the most I’ve ever related to a president

@asherperlman this is a great tweet

@asherperlman Thank you for this laugh

@asherperlman The most I related to him was when he admitted to reading socialist literature to try and get a girl to like him.

@asherperlman Same.

@asherperlman Lol amazing!

@asherperlman @Danicastillhere

@asherperlman 😆😆😆

@asherperlman He is breathtakingly handsome. Easily the most handsome president we've ever had. With morals, intelligence and integrity in abundance.

@asherperlman This is just a magnificent painting ❤️ of President Obama

@asherperlman

@asherperlman I like the one on left better than the one on the right, if you have the whole canvas why not fill it with Obama? All that empty white space is harsh IMO, would've been more interesting with some kind of backdrop even if only a softer color? It's still good, I prefer the left one

@asherperlman I've now been recommended the novel topics "cheese" and "houseplants"

@asherperlman This artist even managed to cast a B/W shadow across his face … it’s Brilliantly created 👏👏👏👏👏

@asherperlman @joegerstandt Totally needs one in a tan suit. Maybe with a big S across this chest.

@asherperlman @chrislongview 🤣this tweet is dedicated to all the brown thumbs and travelers that leave their plants to fend for themselves.

@asherperlman He's a Chicago guy, so I'm guessing he posed for both at Wrigley. The one on the left during the summer, the one on the right during the winter.

@asherperlman It's not everyday that I actually find commentary on here that is perfection, but as my students will tell you, this tweet deserves a golden pencil!!!

@asherperlman What's hilarious is that this came up in my feed under the "Gardening" topic.

@asherperlman Yes, it makes him an everyperson. And the 2nd portrait clearly shows the heavy weight of the guilt.

@asherperlman Still doesn't top this in terms of relatability.

@asherperlman And used the chair 🪑 to build a fire 🔥 to keep warm.

@asherperlman It’s crazy how in art history we just talked about this painting on the left and then it shows up on your Twitter feed!! But hey it’s cool that I know more about it and can recognize it for a different POV

@asherperlman Thanks for reminding me to water mine lol

@asherperlman Yeah - I thought that first one was supposed to be his official portrait. Did he get a do-over?

@asherperlman These are beautiful paintings

@asherperlman I love the photo realism of the new one…especially for the Whitehouse. I was happy to see there was no fake bookshelf behind him!

@asherperlman @HutchinsonDave The one on the left always makes me think of Homer:

@asherperlman It's not a contest, but I'm stanning Kehinde Wiley #maximalism

@asherperlman The black & white remind me of a painting I did decades ago. A small naked black boy with a background of just white snow. Meant to show what black is like in a mostly white world. Same vibes with this portrait

@asherperlman Hahaha, amen.

@asherperlman @butlersride1 I like the portrait on the left better too.

@asherperlman @AlanLevinovitz I know you’re actually good with houseplants, but thought you’d appreciate the above.

@asherperlman 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
