Trek Thunder Kelly

Trek Thunder Kelly is an American artist based in Venice, California. He achieved national recognition with his performance-art candidacy in the 2003 gubernatorial recall election in California. Kelly wore only the color blue for the year preceding the vote, and championed his consistency during the campaign.[1][2] During the campaign, Kelly was a contestant on Game Show Network's Who Wants to Be Governor of California show, and afterwards, he appeared in How Arnold Won the West, a documentary about the election.[3][4]

In 2016 the Los Angeles Times profiled his five years of living in a van in Venice Beach.[5] Kelly's painting The Suicide of Frda Kahlo portrays Kahlo as androgynous.[6][7][8]

Kelly was the host of a 30-part video series by Carnival Cruise lines titles GO.[9]
