Funny Money Friday: Credit card art

Posted on 09/08/2006 10:00 AM | Link | Post Comment

Money doesn&39;t have to be boring! Each week, CreditBloggers.com takes a look at the lighter side of the personal finance world in a series called Funny Money Friday.

Are you good at keeping track of your credit cards? Do you obessesively review your monthly statements or check your accounts online daily? Or are your fixated on reducing your debt balances?

Kate Bingaman knows how you feel. This artist spent 28 months documenting the purchases she made with line drawings and posting them online at ObessiveCosumption.com.

Obsessive Consumption was created by Kate Bingaman to showcase her love/hate relationship with money, shopping, branding, credit cards, celebrity, advertising and marketing.
...
She is currently hand drawing all of her credit card statements until they are paid off and also spends her time consuming, documenting and making

Her credit card statement drawings are amazingly detailed. You can see her Chase, FNBA, Juniper, MBNA, Target and USAA drawings from the last two years online here. And you can even buy one of her drawings for $140. She&39;s going to keep drawing her statements until she gets all of her cards paid off.

It looks like she has $23,572.78 still left to pay off, so she&39;ll probably be drawing for a few more years. Maybe we could work out a trade! I&39;d gladly help Kate create a debt reduction plan in exchange for a framed drawing! Happy Friday!
