The two busts are this year's winning entries for the "Play-Doh Artist of the Year" contest. Each artist was asked to sculpt both the Democratic and Republican party 2012 presidential candidates. The winner, Ian Williams, is a student at the Rhode Island School of Design Sculpture and Ceramics department, which worked with Hasbro to offer the winner a $5,000 tuition stipend.
