Smart guys finish first is a visual reminder that brains beat bravado. At 48 x 60 inches, this acrylic on canvas pulls no punches — a loud, confident composition that speaks to how intelligence, style, and self-awareness get you a lot further in life (and yeah, with women) than trying to play the fool.
The painting mixes sharp detail with chaotic energy, creating a layered scene where the message is clear, even if the characters don’t say a word. It’s clever, confrontational, and just self-aware enough to let you know it’s in on the joke.
This original painting is 48 x 60 inches, acrylic on canvas — one of a kind.
