Artist Jason Baalman who works with Cheetos to create portraits of famous people has now created election candidates Romney and Obama out of the tasty snacks.
Using all of the different flavors of Cheetos for their various shades of yellow an orange, the artist is able to create shading effects and add depth to his larger than life, realistic-looking images. As he works, surrounded by bins full of the cheesy delights, Baalman wears a patriotic cap with an American flag sticking out of it. One can't help but wonder if he is trying to make a statement regarding how cheesy the election candidates and the presidential debate can be at times.
