Art for a Dollar

Critically acclaimed tattoo artist, Scott Campbell, recently showed his work at the O.H.W.O.W. gallery in Miami, FL. The highlight of the evening was a series of laser-cut etchings, each on a stack of $1 bills. The collection is entitled “Make It Rain” and shows a sampling of the artist’s dark and beautiful undertones.

Scott Campbell was born in rural Louisiana and began his career illustrating before mastering the art of tattoo. In 2004, he opened Saved Tattoo in Brooklyn where he perfected his signature style. More at scottcampbelltattoo.com.

wow ginger you certainly go out of your way to jesus bash. Fictional characters exist all over the place in todays world, whether in books or on TV. I'm more than certain you find an enticement in at least one of them. Nice art by the way although I originally thought this was going to be an origami type art.

Even if it is real money, no lives will be affected by the loss of a few dollars. Actually, taking money out of circulation would only increase the value of remaining currency. So, if anyhing, the money homeless people do have would be worth more.

Great pics. The second one would have been nice if it didn't say "Thank you jesus." I don't want to see anything about a fictional character created a long time ago, when people thought the world was flat.. Let's enjoy our lives, like these pieces of art!
