Whether or not it would make for a good (or even coherent) Presidential campaign remains to be seen, but Conrad Ruiz's pop culture art blends together various elements -- Obama, wrestlemania, segways -- from contemporary culture in a highly vibrant and surrealist manner.
Conrad Ruiz's artwork could very well work as a pop culture edition of "I-Spy." One image features so many different elements that one would require a fair amount of time to decipher all of the independent characters and events to fully appreciate the illustration.
Whether it's Barack Obama riding on a giant, flying Welsh Corgis or a wrestle match with Hulk Hogan with the Bananas in Pajamas duo in the crowd, these watercolor images are extremely energetic and engaging.
