Not that I care what they look like naked. I suppose this was bound to happen, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. So, Palin is fascinating, think I'll paint her naked. Gross.Despite their political differences, Elliott admits to a bit of a crush on the Alaska governor. He began painting her smile and trademark glasses, he said, before filling in the details: a gun, red high heels, polar bear rug, rugged Alaska landscape and a scared moose. His daughter, who looks a little like Palin and does a great impression of her, served as model for the governor's body.
Since Elliott, 68, hung the portrait Thursday, it's been a steady draw at the dive bar, which is a popular spot for Second City comedians to grab beers and play pinball after shows. But after the image hit the Internet on Monday, interest exploded.
"We got a bunch of people in tonight," Elliott said. "They're coming to take pictures with their camera phones. The photo is all over the place."

And this is creepy in a somewhat unrelated way (from the photo caption). Bolding mine.
Bruce Elliott, whose wife owns the Old Town Ale House, painted this nude portrait of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. He said his daughter, who does a good impression of the Alaska governor, served as model.
Re: Nude Palin portrait
Disgusting on several levels.
And if this guy doesn't support Palin politically, he's doing a hell of a job of feeding into critics with this sexist garbage.
EW! Maybe this guys own vpilf.com
Sidenote: Ever see that part in "America" the book where the US Supreme Court Justices are naked. Now that's scary!!
Yuck. I'm generally fine with nude art, but this really isn't for artistic merit; it's clearly about shock value.
And the segment about his daughter doing the posing turns my stomach.
Way to make your party look good, @sshole.
WTF is wrong with him? Men like this gross me out. I'm guessing he lives in his mother's basement.
Oh. My. God.
Ew.....
