Why did artist Jonathan Crow decide to top the head of each US vice president with a watercolor cephalopod? Because it's funny.


For his Veeptopus series, Crow has done an ink and watercolor portrait of each vice president, from John Adams to Joe Biden, with an octopus on his head. (Well, Dick Cheney's is a tiny bit different; go check it out.) If you have a favorite vice president and want to hang his tentacle-covered face on your wall, you can get a print from Crow's online shop.

Here are a few of the VPs:
