Reblogged from New York State Of Mind:
There we were, meandering around the Metropolitan Museum of Art. As well as seeing work by several other of my favourite artists', I'd had the chance to view a couple of my favourite Monet's pieces - 'Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lillies' and 'Water Lillies', as well as a Van Gogh I really liked, so was feeling pretty darned great!

I never quite 'got' all the fuss about Van Gogh's work... His paintings always looked a little strange to me.
And then I went to MoMA a few years ago and saw 'The Starry Night' for the first time and just like the Jackson Pollock pieces I'd seen minutes before, it grabbed me and gave me a thorough shake.
Miniature series entitled "The City" by Lori Nix
I'm a little obsessed with the idea of this equation:
miniature + city + abandoned + vintage + photography = Awesomeness
Lori Nix is often asked questions about the inspiration for her work as well as her working process.
"I have been building dioramas and photographing the results since the early 1990s. As I've working through various bodies of work my fabrication skills have improved and my subject matter has become more complex.
