George W. Bush appeared on The Tonight Show Tuesday to share important news about his art (and something about about health initiatives in Africa): He’s done a portrait of Jay Leno. Apparently, Bush’s Pet Period is coming to a close, and after experimenting with a painting of himself as a dog and two bathtub self-portraits, he’s moved on to other humans. Frankly, the work itself is disappointingly one-dimensional, but hopefully this will lead to paintings as profound as Barney staring longingly through the White House fence. Maybe Vladimir Putin’s face reflected in a Super Bowl ring? Dick Cheney trapped inside his man-sized safe?
