Anniversary sale: 3.000 economic words

Dear friends of economicwords,

Since April 2012, I have been drawing black lines at regular intervals on newspaper clippings from the Financial Times. I continue to be amazed by the unexpected messages hidden within these economic reports.

Now, the three-thousandth economicword has come into being. 3,000 words have fallen into place. 

To celebrate this occasion, economicwords are available for a limited time at €200 per piece (plus €7 shipping). The anniversary sale runs until March 1 – first come, first served.

economicwords are economic!

Each economicword is a unique piece, drawn in black marker on original newspaper clippings from the Financial Times. The clippings measure approximately 5.5 cm in width and 7–10 cm in height. All works are dated and signed on the reverse and are shipped framed.

Choose your favorite word here and send me an email   with your selection, along with your shipping and billing details. -> post@anke-becker.de

You will receive an invoice by email, and your original artwork will be sent to you by post.

Happy economic browsing!
Yours,
Anke
