OSAMA – THE BIGGEST ARSEHOLE ON THE PLANETA photorealist painting of a terrorist

Photorealism painting | Osama the biggest arsehole on the planet

Bert Ernie was, like many people, outraged by one man deciding to impose his belief system (Islam) and its judgements and values on innocent people. That man was, at the time, was the biggest arsehole on the planet.

Bert Ernie is an Islamophobe. Bert fears Islam and its stone-age thinking. Bert does not fear muslims. Bert does not hate muslims. Although Bert does hate anybody who seeks to force others into thinking like them.

Having said that Bert Ernie is a man of principle and he did not agree with his execution. Instead Bert believes he should have been tried in court. He’s guilty as sin, and his punishment should have been jail in complete and utter isolation from all human contact until the day he died.

The story behind Osama – the biggest arsehole on the planet

Osama bin Laden is the biggest arsehole on the planet – or was. He has gone now, but his obscene use of religion to murder thousands of humans led Bert to paint a portrait of the leader of Al Qaeda.

Bert Ernie wanted there to be no doubt as to how he felt about the man, so he did two things. Firstly, and most obviously, he added the words – The biggest arsehole on the planet. Secondly, he didn’t take much care painting him. In fact, he spent more time on painting his jacket and the cushion than his rude looking mug.
