James McQueen I Did It For The Money For Sale

I Did It For The Money is a large-format acrylic and mixed-media painting on canvas, measuring 101.6 × 152.4 cm. The title — delivered with the deadpan candour that runs through McQueen's work — positions the painting within his ongoing engagement with the language of commerce, aspiration, and authenticity. The canvas surface is built through McQueen's characteristic process: layers of paint applied, dried, sanded back, and lacquered, producing a depth and richness that belies the apparent simplicity of the image.
