المال, деньги, χρήματος, MONEY!

Who doesn't like money?! Our assignment in art this week is to either create an image that resembles a sound/song OR create our own money! I have decided on doing the sound one, but we were asked to post some interesting looking money. So, I have been surfing around for a while now, looking at Euros and Colones and many others. My favorite by far though is this...

This is a South African bill. I find the colors very interesting and the choice of the leopard is a very bold move. This money looks powerful. It is not as complex as some of the other types of currency, but the intricacy of the matrix in the back is boggling and over lay of the images is great! The words stand out on the page without being over bearing. Overall this bill is beautiful.
