Popular culture
The Ween song "Vallejo" is a tribute to the artist. After emigrating to the United States in 1964 he quickly garnered a fan following from his illustrations of Tarzan Conan the Barbarian Doc Savage and various other fantasy characters (often done for paperback fiction works featuring the characters).

Subjects of his paintings are typically Sword and sorcery gods monsters and well-muscled male and female barbarians engaged in battle. Boris Vallejo (born January 8 1941) is a Peruvian-born American painter. Vallejo works almost exclusively in the fantasy and erotica genres.
