"Smile, You Son of a Bitch!" is a humorous and slightly disturbing painting by 20th-century artist Dave MacDowell. The painting depicts three men, seemingly trapped within the gaping maw of a monstrous creature, reacting with varying degrees of terror and amusement. One man, holding a gun, appears to be taking a selfie, while another sticks out his tongue in defiance. The scene is a playful commentary on contemporary anxieties and the power of pop culture.
