The perfect picture of the slander and glamour of the 1970s: “MONEY TALKS”. Mustard yellow, burnt umber, emerald green with accents of gold foil and iridescent teal make up the abstraction. The variety of textures and finishes in this piece certainly have a voice; “MONEY TALKS”, but texture and color whisper much louder. The colorful letters selected bring out the range of shades layered throughout the piece, and add a level of cohesion not achieved by the abstraction alone.
