A parody of DaVinci’s “Last Supper”, this piece takes a satirical look at junk food Icons. Although this piece could be viewed as sacrilegious, it is meant to be more of a stab at unhealthy food than at Christianity. Ronald McDonald represents the Christ figure. Grimace wears a Burger King crown suggesting it was he who betrayed Ronald.

Jim Thompson just graduated from Fairhaven College with a degree in Graphic Design through Fairhaven’s Upside-down Degree program.
