Follow on Google News | Street Artist TMNK Honors First 100 Days Of President Obama While Helping 100 Different CharitiesNew York street artist TMNK aka NOBODY is creating 100 Barack Obama related paintings to commemorate the first 100 days of his presidency. For each of the paintings sold, a different charity will benefit with 50 percent of the profits.
By: GeraLd Flores “Will the amount of money raised/donated be significant? The sixth of 100 paintings in this series, entitled “Under Attack” is now available for auction. The artist describes his painting as a piece “to perceive the difficult decisions President Obama has ahead of him.” Half of this painting’s profits will go directly to The American Red Cross. Other charities that will benefit from NOBODY's First 100 Days series are Austin Children's Center, New York City Harvest and the American Cancer Society. Once a homeless person, NOBODY’s artwork has been featured at The Gaylord National Kwanzaa Exhibit, MoMA’s Design of the Electric Mind opening and the Writers Strike art show at the Lott Gallery. He’s also had solo exhibitions in Milan, ART WHINO, and named Brooklyn Art Project’s Artist of the Day.
