**OBEYMA** is the tag of this powerful sticker inspired by the now world famous "OBEY" by urban artist Shephard Ferry.

The artist behind this idea is Felix Sockwell, an [illustrator and designer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beige-billboards) from Maplewood, NJ who has a strong background with identity and poster design. Reviewing his idea, there is no doubt of his amazing talent.

As the [Democratic Convention](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/6079-movement) goes on in Denver, I am sure the [demand for these stickers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stickerlab) will increase higher than Obama's 46%. The power and simplicity of these pieces is remarkable. Again, design is helping Barack Obama to CHANGE the world.
