Nashville Artists Lampoon Failing President

President Donald Trump's face — along with the hair on top of it and the noises that come out of it — has been a subject of horror and fascination for years now, and two local artists are responsible for wonderful renderings of it that many people are talking about.

Nashvillians Alex Lockwood (who opened Elephant Gallery in May) and Casey Promise are finalists in anti-Trump juggernaut Crooked Media's Portrait Mode contest, which attracted a thousand submissions for the president's "official portrait." The final 18 include a number of outstanding entries, including one from one of Trump's leading celebrity antagonists, Rosie O'Donnell. 

Check out Lockwood and Promise's work below, via their respective Instagram pages:
