Artist's Comments

A 'trophy wife' by most definitions is a woman that a man marries who is good looking but lacks substance and intelligence. I would call that a negative concept because we have enough historical evidence to know that a relationship based on looks alone is flawed.

This image has a similar theme to my previous image, Skin Deep, in which I've attempted to portray another negative human trait in an eye catching way. Why I've concentrated on negative concepts, I don't know. It may sound strange to you but even my conscience self sometimes stays outside of the creative loop.
:?


Because the vast majority of my work portrays physically beautiful women, you may think that I see physical beauty as important attribute in real life and that I may want a 'trophy wife' in the future. In reality though, beauty, that lacks substance underneath it, looks good on the shelf but it inevitably collects dust (and wrinkles) over time. I am much more interested in the things that stand the test of time.

:bulletblue: Favorite comment to date: I love the meaning behind this. Your explanation of the piece is very moving. I'm glad that not all men out there are shallow and want trophy wives. =StacyRaven

A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.

wow that's awesome!!! how did you accomplish such an amazing image?
:iconstuartperry:
superb, and the message is very strong too, especially in today's world where a man is not only measured by his financial status rather than his character and is also measured by the lady on his arm and her social status.
