Illustration Friday - Contraption

Why, it is all just a house of cards!

I was inspired today to do an illustration for this week's Illustration Friday theme - Contraption. I immediately thought of a Rube Goldberg contraption which once I had the dominoes leading to a house of cards...became a sort of Alice in Wonderland/political illustration - with the cheshire cat becoming a wall street fat cat and the house of cards and dominoes the illusion/contraptions of wall street. Alice wakes up when she realizes it is all a house of cards.

Indeed, this is a very powerful political illustration. I love how you incorporated everything and present an idea.
