Welcome to Red Cake's inaugural blog post! It took us awhile to come up with an appropriate topic to start off with- and well, the election came to mind, since that's all we've been hearing about lately. And being that Red Cake sells art, I scoured the web for some of the interesting, weird, and just plain bad election inspired art. I was surprised to find very few Palin inspired artwork- perhaps there are some masterpieces still in the works?
Not feeling patriotic enough? Hang this in your house to show you're a proud American. The fiery orange background kind of reminds me of hell, no?:

Sarah again, but this time au naturel- unfortunately we can't get a real good close up shot of this one, but perhaps we are just better off that way:
There was a wealth of Obama art from a contest sponsored by Moveon.org, most of it pedestrian, but a couple standouts:
Barack in a box...odd, but well executed:
A very eco-friendly rock and mulch Barack:
Obama on a Unicorn (enough said):
