A Moment of Comics

Something different today. Artist Thomas Woodruff created this portrait of Donald Trump with his own feces. It appeared in the political comics anthology World War Illustrated last year. Woodruff has been the subject of much controversy after it was announced recently that his first ever graphic novel ("graphic opera?") was nominated for four Eisners. What I can't get over is that he allegedly used his work scanners for this literal piece of s--t and the students had to deal with the mess. 

It has to be said that the universal problem with artists is that that not enough of them take care of their own s---. That and too many people have to clean up after them. Here, art truly imitates life.
