    one Artist's way to save Money

     

    As if being an artist isn't already enough of a gamble, Ted Stanke has taken it to a new level of risk, with hopes for a grand payoff.  Ted has been converting near-worthless coins into art that he intends to sell for more money.  This method of art-making is good for the economy, because it adds value to our struggling currency.

     

    The current project involves making a deck of cards and selling them on Ebay, 1 card per week., for an entire year.  Only the back of the card can be seen until the auction is completed, and whoever has the best 5 card hand at the end of the year will recieve the Joker card for free.

     

    The experiment has entered it's 4th week.  visit the auction and witness the results for yourself:

    Card Auction #4
