I Drew Portraits Of Every U.S. Vice President With An Octopus On His Head

ADVERTISEMENT

Two years ago, I unveiled to the world my insane project: hand-drawn portraits of every U.S. vice president with an octopus on his head, from John Adams to Joe Biden. The series started as a giddy, over-caffeinated 3 o’clock-in-the-morning sort of idea that I took way too far.

And to my surprise, people seemed to like the weird project. Last week, I launched a Kickstarter to put all of them into one beautiful book. I reached my funding goal in less than 5 days and so far I’ve earned over $10,000 and counting. You can read more this weird project below. Check it out!

I genuinely love that this is what people are doing with their time

I came to ask why...then I saw it was already asked three times...but I suppose it's better to not ask the question anyway XD

I see an artist with excellent drawing skills placing three small cups on her desk. They have been labeled.........'Sea Creature'.....'Anatomical Location'........'Occupation' . A small sign in front of her sketch pad reads **** 'pick one from each' **** :>>>>> : Then draw!!!' And that she did, and she did it FANTASTIC !

I searched for Octopus on Joe Biden's head. This very prophetic. In deliverance, the OCTOPUS spirit is on the head of the individual and controls what they think! Someone needs to get the Octopus off Joe's head!

Anyone else think of the episode with Buster's swim cap and DW's fear of octopuses from "Arthur"?

I love octopi! I would seriously hang up a watercolor picture of myself with an octopus on my head. Maybe I'll be vice president now.

Why do I read it like "boot to the head" from the Phoenix Wrong video.
