I'm not quite sure why this artist refers to his as dioramas--perhaps it's that sense of a whole little world recreated. I just thought I might point that out, because "diorama" usually means something else. Whatever the case, I bet they're pretty incredible in person!Paper Chipmunkhttp://www.paperchipmunk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5562870398071023329.post-69503700742646611962011-04-04T19:02:53.520-07:002011-04-04T19:02:53.520-07:00So much talent.

My favorite was the front of a school bus parked on a street with trees and blue skies. Somehow the diorama gave it more life and personality.Michelenoreply@blogger.com
