Shepard Fairey, the street artist behind the iconic “Hope” poster of Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, has created a similarly-styled work in honor of Trayvon Martin.

According to Fairey’s website, Ebony magazine commissioned the image several months ago, but the artist was not able to unveil it “until the issue hit newsstands this week.”

The painting recreates the now-famous photo of Martin wearing a hoodie. The background features images from rallies demanding justice for the Florida teen’s death.

Re: Obama "HOPE" Artist Creates Trayvon Painting
That is a wonderful poster. Trayvon's beautiful eyes seem to implore "why? why did I have to die?". At the hands of that evil thug vigilante white man.

Trayvon is at peace now, no longer having to live in fear of the likes of George Zimmerman and his ilk. Tray is safe in the arms of our loving God.

The only thing that would make the poster better would be if there was a single tear on Tray's face, as he cried for the evil that men do and the wickedness that consumes this sick, sad world.

I used to take pictures of foreclosures for the bank; I have had to get in to more than a few gated communities.

Even in my nice car and suit I have had bad issues once inside gated communities, you don’t mess with people who have money & choose to live behind a wall. They live behind that wall for a reason, reasons you want nothing to do with.

You also have to assume everyone is armed, or you get in trouble real quick.

There is no way he was just cutting through that gated neighborhood just to risk a trespassing charge.
I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw.

We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three.

I hope that thug, Trayvon, is enjoying his dirt nap. The BROWN man, George Zimmerman made the world a better place. If only he could have killed your lying, race baiting ass, we really could rejoice.

Re: Obama "HOPE" Artist Creates Trayvon Painting
I bet if the N-word was allowed on this website, txgal and others would make it a primary word in their day to day vocabulary.

The subtle and not so subtle racism expressed here by certain posters is almost comical, because to any slightly intelligent person, they sound like they're celebrating their own ignorance and stupidity. They might as well just say "Hey look how stupid and racist I am! Look at these dumb things I say and actually believe!"

I'm not really a fan of Fairey. I'm pretty indifferent towards him, but the intent behind his poster is pretty bulletproof, if any of you actually read his statements.

Shepard Fairey has some good posters and murals, but visual this one is kind of bland, I think it might be the color choice and shading.
