The mythology I'm focusing on is King Midas, and how whatever he touched turned to gold. This eventually killed him because he could eat or drink without it turning to gold. He wanted gold for money. Kings Midas was being greedy, which eventually led to his death. To portray this, I would like to have a picture of King Midas with golden hands strangling his throat to symbolize greed. There will be things representing greed as one of the 7 deadly sins in the background. I like this idea because greed has always interested me on how it affect people and their lives/personalities.
