Cash coins in art

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen those shiny coins that grown-ups use to buy things at the store? Well, sometimes people who make art like to use those coins in their artwork. They might glue them onto a canvas or use them to make a sculpture.

The reason artists use coins in their art is because they can make really cool patterns and designs using different sizes and colors of coins. It's like putting together a puzzle, but with shiny coins instead of cardboard pieces.

Some artists even use coins from other countries to make their art look even more interesting and unique. And sometimes, the coins themselves can have special meanings or stories behind them that the artist wants to incorporate into their artwork.

So, if you ever see an art piece with shiny coins on it, remember that the artist used those coins to make something really special and interesting.
