Well, more than a year late to the party, but I feel compelled. This is great work for shrink plastic; I'll bet it took you a while. Where are they now, I wonder?
And to Senor Ramireo, These are all famous works of art, actually -- and "the wave" is in fact a famous woodblock print by Japanese artist Hokusai, not anything by an Argentinian artist.
Copying famous pieces in different mediums is hardly stealing... more like homage.
Never apologize for a comment - ancient or not. Yeah, these were fun. I bought the shrink plastic for my daughters and ended up with a bunch of tiny homages that I used as birthday gifts for friends and family that year. I did think it funny that Senor Ramireo saw an Argentinian artist's homage and accused me of stealing!
"'Patriotism is not enough.' But neither is anything else. Science is not enough, religion is not enough, art is not enough, politics and economics are not enough, nor is love, nor is duty, nor is action however disinterested, nor, however sublime, is contemplation. Nothing short of everything will really do."
-Aldous Huxley

(Sorry for the ancient comment.)
Hey Ku,

Thanks and Praise,
