......I was listening John Butler Trio, Money.....

So 1+1....

.........All for your money
Sweeter than honey
All for your Money
Tell me man can you eat your money
Tell me man can you eat your money
Cos that's what's gonna be left, that's what's gonna be left
So tell me man can you eat your money

Business man with your uranium mine,
will you gain a conscience
Politician man, there in your Government,
will you gain a conscience
Media man with all your newspapers,
Who lies must gain a conscience
Prime Minister with all our apathy,
will you GAIN A CONSCIENCE!

C+C welcomed!

Cheers

Fab,

I like the concept and the colours, but I think that if you're going to include the wine glass, then it should be included, rather than a cutoff base.

So ... either the whole glass (maybe stuffed with notes?) or not at all.

Thanks,
for suggestions

Yes, the glasses was full of coins, but i did't like it.
I'll try again with a full glass or without it.

Cheers
Fab

nice concept

are those all your declined credit cards?

in terms of execution i think the utensils blend in too much with the other elements.

but concept comes first so many kudos to you!

perhaps the knife and fork either side of the plate inside in the mix with the cut up cards?
watch finger prints on nice shiny silver

Thanks Wendell
They were old working cards replaced now with new one.

For the execution I'm new in this area "Still life" but I'd like to improve my skills so any comments is welcomed.
I like still life because you might talk without words.

Laurie,
I'll try to move them. But same side in a sort of "I'm full now, I had enough".
Finger prints? I'll use gloves.

the concept is great.

Maybe try getting one of those funky plates you see at cuisine restaurants (ie. large and square), and only have one small pile of credit card in the middle. Usually you pay a lot for only a little bit. And have a glass with a wad full of notes like Gary suggested. Could try it from a side or 3/4 view to get the entire glass in.
