Dollar Bill Art Is So Money
About a year ago I started handing out dollar bills to people that worked for me, and I asked them to do whatever they wanted with the dollar as long as I could laminate it when finished. Once laminated, I want to buy the large Zettel Chandelier and use the dollars there. The project is a nice way to remember all the creative talent I have working for me.
We just finished a pitch recently where we used dollar bills as the canvas for the clients marketing message, and that got me thinking about scanning and posting these. Enjoy!

Great concept. I like the idea of collecting memories this way. I wish I would have thought of it.

I like the handbag. Some others are cool. Most are junk. Some express a lot of hate. To bad. Life is to short to hate that much.
