Liquid Assets Seeks to Occupy Art Supplies

2:37 PM PDT on October 27, 2011

    We've previously discussed Liquid Assets Paint & Pigment Company, the Buenos Aires-based company that manufactures acrylic paint from cold, hard cash using a "unique chemical and mechanical process." Yesterday, we got the following from founder Fernando Gil:

    I've entered Liquid Assets Paint & Pigment Company (my company that makes paint from real currency) into a contest at 3rd Ward. If we win the $1,000 prize, I intend to convert the U.S. Dollars into Chinese Yuan, then convert the Yuan into acrylic paint. I will then give the Yuan paint to some artistic homeless folks to paint a foreclosed home.

    Vote here if you'd like to see Gil fulfill his promise.
