UPDATE - I was mistaken, Barack was painted by Wilde.
Michelle was painted by somebody named Amy Sherald.

Except as to the rule of appointment, the United States have an indefinite discretion to make requisitions for men and money; but they have no authority to raise either by regulations extending to the individual citizens of America.

The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
Michelle's was done by Amy Sherald
Barack's was done by Kehinde Wiley
A sample of Wiley's other works (I'll follow up with Sherald's work):

Did two of the "Judith" paintings.
The fact that the artist is a ho-mo explains the rappers in seductive poses paintings.
It may also tell us something about O'Bummer.

And why he did such a hatchet job on her portrait.
The price tag for the portraits of President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama unveiled at The National Portrait Gallery Tuesday has been revealed as the paintings' critical reception remains mixed.
The paintings cost $500,000 — and some believe Michelle Obama's portrait doesn't even look like her.

And what's up with the six fingers?

It looks like prison yard erotica, if there is such a genre.
I thought it looked more like one of their daughters.

LOL, Obama got punked with this painting.

I notice that Snopes didn't show a picture of the painting to debunk the photo of the sperm on the forehead. So I take it that snopes' position is that it isn't a sperm but rather a vein that looks very suspiciously like a sperm on the painting but not in real life.

+rep"In the Bushes".
That's hilarious.
