Tes One. Change We Made. 45”x60”, 2008.
Artworks by four Tampa Bay artists—Tes One, Bask and Phillip Clark and Chad Mize of Bluelucy—are headed to Washington, DC, where they will be featured in Manifest Hope, an exhibit celebrating the election of Barack Obama.
Shepard Fairey's now-iconic, red-and-blue portrait of the president elect will serve as the centerpiece of the show, which includes work by more than 100 artists.
If you'd like to get your hands on a limited edition print of Tes One's painting, Change We Made (pictured above), visit the artist's e-commerce site on Inaguration Day (Jan. 20).
