Mind Socks
Description: The Fugio Cent, minted in 1787, was the first official coin of the United States. Designed by Benjamin Franklin, it features a sundial with the Latin motto "Fugio," meaning "I fly," symbolizing the swift passage of time, alongside the phrase "Mind Your Business." The coin's design reflects the early American emphasis on time, industry, and independence.
Description: I discovered these words recently and they really hit me. I knew I had to incorporate them into something! Now, I got a request a while back for a Rhino shape. With the conservation and protection of our worldly wonders in mind, I combined the two to create this hand-lettered design. This hand-lettered quote by Rachel Carson reads, “The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for its destruction.”
