Earlier this year, we learned that José Canseco has a penchant for poetry, but it seems that was just the tip of the artistic iceberg. This weekend, Canseco revealed his latest masterpiece: a portrait of MLB Commissioner Bud Selig.

Apparently there’s a market for this stuff.

But that was only the beginning:
I want to paint a duet with George Bush can't find him

Naturally, he reached out to former First Lady Laura Bush:
hey Laura @laurawbush saw the George dog paintings and would like to paint with him. Can you connect us. I am not mad still about Nixon deal
— Jose Canseco (@JoseCanseco) March 25, 2013
She has yet to reply. Fortunately, José has something else he can work on while he waits to hear back:
Doing painting of Donald trump this week. This one will be good.

Sweet. We can’t wait to see what other artistic tricks he has up his smock sleeve.
I do not paint what my eyes see i paint what my mind sees
