Funny Money
Money, ah, the abstract concept that fuels our capitalist dreams! It’s like Monopoly money, right? Just a bunch of colorful paper we all pretend has value. “Funny Money” takes a jab at this absurdity, with Rich Uncle Pennybags (you know, the Monopoly guy) always reaching out for more, just like the rest of us. It’s all a big game, folks! Just remember, in the end, we’re all winners and losers in this hilarious cash-fueled circus! LOL indeed!

The 55
Ah, car culture – my perpetual muse! There’s something about those sleek lines, the raw emotion, and oh, the sweet, sweet taste of freedom that gets my creative juices flowing faster than a Bugatti on the Autobahn. But hey, this piece isn’t just about revving engines and burning rubber. No, no. It’s a metaphorical joyride through the highways of existence, a journey of living and creating. Take a closer look, my friend. You might just spot the meaning hidden in the exhaust fumes.

MyTrix
Welcome to the battlefield of attention, where advertisers brandish creativity like a sword, stabbing straight into our psyche with surgical precision. Escaping their clutches in this digital age? About as easy as teaching a cat to do your taxes. But fear not! I find my liberation in the sacred art of transferring these brainwashing imprints onto paper, setting my subconscious free to frolic in fields of creativity. Armed with paper and paint, I wage war against consumerism, embracing mistakes and drips like battle scars. Each stroke captures the chaotic dance of ideas, a testament to the wild ride that is the creative process. So, join me in this rebellious romp through the land of art, where we stick it to the man one brushstroke at a time!
