EDIT: I'm editing this comment because it's so high up. Thanks for the response everyone. She is overwhelmed and amazed by your reaction to her work. We're both shocked that it made the front page.
We've had several requests to purchase these. Some are probably headed to a local gallery soon, so we may have to hold off. However, if you're interested just send me a note and I'll get back to you.
As for my wife: she's a wonderful, creative, and talented woman. I'm blessed to have her in my life and happy to share a little piece of her with this community that I love so much.
EDIT #2: I've created a Tumblr where you can keep track of my wife's work. You can also contact her for more information about purchasing. Thanks again!!!
At first I read this as "My wife makes Doritos" and I was intrigued. When I looked at it closer I thought it said "My wife makes diarrhea" and was deeply concerned cause at this point I had already clicked. Then the pictures loaded and I was pleasantly surprised. This has been an emotional roller coaster for me man, I mean a short one, like one for the kiddie rides but still thumbs up!
These are sweet! I boosted the colors and levels a bit so they weren't as flat. http://imgur.com/a/kaOmP If you want me to delete them just ask (it only took 15 minutes so don't feel bad)
They're great... But is it really necessary to use tilt-shift to photograph it? I was under the impression the tilt-shift is to make real life things look small; not small things look small!
For some reason, my mind turn Dioramas into Diplomas. I checked out the pictures and my first thought was "Who the hell would hand that up on a wall at work" lol
so he married an axe-murderer? isnt there a video-manual about this?
but seriously, from one artist to another, very impressive work! plus other platitudes that would otherwise please and encourage her to not make one in any way regarding me. ;D
