It’s a creative attempt made by mazeplay.com artist who artistically sculpted a pro Romney image in a 25 acre corn field located in Northwest Ohio, about 4.5 miles from Toledo Express Airport. The “Go Romney” art was created in six hours and is an attempt by Wheeler and Ryan farms, the owners of the corn field to put a positive spotlight on the Romney campaign, while motivating people to vote. The artist – mazeplay.com donated his time for this cause. This isn’t the first time that Wheeler Farms have tried to make a political statement with their corn field, in 2008 they sculpted an image of Sarah Palin.
