Original artwork description:

Using imagery from the movie, Wall Street, Gordon Gekko, played by Michael Douglas puts a face to the term "greed." The piece isn't meant to fully condone greed in fact the name of the work, "Greed Is Good" is meant to agree with the quote shown on the piece in stock market style, "It's not a question of enough. It's a zero sum game. Somebody wins, somebody loses. Money itself isn't lost or made it's simply transferred from one perception to another." The piece celebrates those who choose to be the winner (while ignoring the negative implications of winning). Objective of the work: To motivate through message, imagery and color.

Materials used:

Photo paper, collage materials, acrylics, spray paints, air brush on wood board and resin cover.
