plastic fantastic

What a girl gotta do do when she has little money?
Make credit cards! (as you might have figured out)

Again there is of course this thing with photos; they make things seem flatter. I've been putting some time on making first thick flat "cards" in white acrylics - then painting the specific colours and shapes. In real this gives the impression of actual cards (the same thickness) - more or less. I chose not to write the actual texts as I do not want too much focus on the cards.

I call the painting Plastic Fantastic. (click image for bigger)

Do you know iNeed by Mantis?
LV Child by Beejoir?
...good work!
Somehow also related to this post: wooster collective (how do I think?)
