Trump Portrait Made Entirely Out of Folded US Currency

It's appropriate that Donald Trump, a guy who measures success in dollar signs, would be immortalized with dollar bills. Springville artist Sean Diediker has done just that, creating a 51" X 64" portrait of Mr. Trump by folding 1,300 one-dollar bills. Fox 13 reported that Diediker spent two months, working eight hours a day, on the portrait.

The original is going on display at the Springfield Art Museum. You can buy an original sized print for $2,500 on Diediker's website. He's also done money-art portraits of the men you usually find on money: Washington, Lincoln, Hamilton and Jackson.
