Jim Carrey, actor, comedian and Renaissance painter, just submitted his first masterpiece.

Or, uh, so the people of the internet think. On Thursday, Jim Carrey submitted his "official portrait" of Donald Trump to the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery via Twitter. The portrait features Trump sitting in his bathrobe eating an ice cream cone which is highly accurate, so he obviously has my vote.

“Dear Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery,” Carrey wrote on Twitter. “I know it’s early but I’d like to submit this as the official portrait of our 45th President, Donald J. Trump. It’s called, ‘You Scream. I Scream. Will We Ever Stop Screaming?”

Carrey has a real attention to detail, between the orange folds of Trump's skin and the nipple-esque cherries on his ice cream. I was hoping to make it through the next few years of his administration without being forced to look at his burly chest hair, but here we are, crying.

Take a look at some of Carrey's previous work, including this charmer of Sarah Huckabee Sanders and another presidential stunner.

Rembrandt, El Greco, step aside and meet the portrait painter of the 21st century -- Ace Ventura Pet Detective.
