The OS Gemeos-Will I Am portrait painting collaboration is a perfect example of the potential for spectacular when you combine the avant-garde art world with one of the world's biggest pop culture entities.

OS Gemeos is composed of twin 37-year-old Brazilian brothers and graffiti writers named Otavio and Gustavo Pandolfo who specialize in a diverse array of street art aesthetics, including massive murals, tags, and caricatures.

For their latest work, Os Gemeos teamed with Black Eyed Peas frontman and pop superproducer Will I Am to create the OS Gemeos Will I Am painting entitled 'Boombox Planet.'

The OS Gemeos-Will I Am collaboration shows the rapper, musician, actor, and songwriter in a ridiculous, flower-printed, blue, orange, and red bodysuit, holding onto a puppet, a birdhouse, and a parrot, while looking every bit as crazy as he did that onetime he appeared via hologram on 2008 Election night.
