This is an original trompe l'oeil painting of American currency, a silver key, and a United States Senate
pencil which are mysteriously attached to a piece of cardboard. The title and subject matter refer to the numerous secrets and scandals that continually plague the government. For my own amusement, I gave "Honest Abe" a deliberately bored pout, in part to demonstrate that the prevalence of trickery in politics is so commonplace that it's become backpage news for the man on the bill who has seen it all.
