“Another Ridiculous CliCHE” by Mike Mitchell
The result of another late night livestream session. This one, along with the Darwin one were done for fun more than any sort of social commentary. I don’t really think there is sufficient depth in taking a portrait and adding a Mickey hat to it, I just enjoy painting iconic portraits.
I do however find it very funny and ironic how Che is an icon plastered all over t-shirts in the US. I’m pretty sure he would have no qualms with putting a piece of metal between the eyes of any American who would have worn a shirt like that in front of him. While being a revolutionary who stood up for people who couldn’t stand up for themselves, he was ruthless as all hell and had no problems ending the lives of anyone in his way. I find his story extremely fascinating but I know very well that I’m probably not his ideal type of person. I’m pretty sure he would insta-kill me for making this…
