An artist from Bushwick created a tribute to the critically acclaimed "Hamilton" play.
Danielle de Jesus' tribute to the show is a portrait of its creator and star, Lin-Manuel Miranda, next to the Puerto Rican flag on a $10 bill.
The real $10 bill bears the likeness of Alexander Hamilton, whom the play is about.
De Jesus says the painting has been well received, but she wants to turn it into a mural in Washington Heights, where Miranda grew up.
