No American political campaign in my lifetime has stirred up as much passion as Barack Obama’s race for the White House.
From Hollywood celebrities to anonymous bloggers or callers on phone-in talk shows, it seems that everyone is looking to share their views, change some minds, make a statement.
America’s artists are no exception.
Whether using digital photo editing techniques or a plain old can of spray paint, they’ve been making their voices heard – or rather, their images seen.
Here are a few stand-out selections from across the country:
