http://news.yahoo.com/zimmerman-painting-targets-special-prosecutor-012548049.htmlGeorge Zimmerman is releasing a new piece of artwork, this one portraying the special prosecutor who charged him with second-degree murder.
Robert Zimmerman Jr. posted his brother's new painting Wednesday on Twitter. He said details about its sale would follow Thursday.
The painting titled "Angie" uses shades of red and orange to depict northeast Florida state attorney Angela Corey holding her thumb and fingers together. Text on the piece reads, "I have this much respect for the American judicial system."
Zimmerman sold another painting on eBay last month, with a winning bid of $100,099.99.

So who can tell me where he plagiarized this from?

It was taken by photographer Rick Wilson in April 2012.
Expectations are that the winning bid on Zimmerman's new work will be placed by this guy...

Gawker never fails to crack me up
George Zimmerman hasn't had anything to shoot in a while, so he's still playing with this debt-paying arts-and-crafts thing where he trolls everyone with infantile comments on American justice, oh and also, stencils.
The multiple offender who still, amazingly, has guns and a driver's license and freedom, let his brother unveil this breathtaking masterpiece of his Early Derp Period, titled "Angie."
haahahahahahaha his 'early derp period' .LOL!!!!!

The "seems legit" of Zimmerman's painting career is off the charts.

I'm sure there are loopholes but putting words in her mouth, even in a work of (urp) art, seems unwise.
