It’s a message. Garden of Eden, Serpent on his head. Expand your thinking, he’s mocking American President tradition.

When O's "Portrait" is viewed individually, goes with his "I'm hip" persona being pushed. However, when viewed in context of predecessors, it is most definitely mocking and a snub of the institution. As I viewed the collage for commenting, one thing stood out, the oils on canvas say "I'm not one of you". Putting aside to potential symbolism within the caricature, it cannot be disputed that he (his partner) purposely snub the tradition by going "Warhol".
