I have an awesome husband. Help me be an awesome(r) wife.
His art:
...This giraffe belongs here.
Another giraffe.
His website is www.gabriellehman.com. Thank you guys!
maxredspeed3
Why hasn't Tim Burton hired him?
Tinkerbellatrix
no
SpaceWeatherMan
It's cool art. But I personally don't like the style. So I'll just +1 to help out.
MichaeIScott
Exactly what I was going to say. Still gave it a +1 because he's obviously talented
BigIrishGuy
This is awesome stuff. Bravo to your SO, OP
letsnotgetcereal
As a straight guy, is your husband single? Damn, that is some amazing artwork.
SlightlyMexican
Your husband has done Acid. LOADS of Acid. Amazing paintings.
dieblob
I don't like it
Pawprintjj
I think he's got talent, but I do not like his style.
TheExpertBlackGuy
Holy shit this is good. I mean I'm not one for promoting things on Imgur but this is undeniably amazing.
ShogunSG
I tried to get your stuff to the frontpage @condescendingwonkavator. But to no avail. I've actually been thinking about posting some more!
RoyBasty
Useful wife is useful.
IDontCareImStillFreeYouCantTakeTheSkyFromMe
His artwork has been on FP so many times.....only the giraffe is new to me.
ImTheOneWhoTookYourRug
Your husband has unrealistic body image issues...j/k - great stuff, very imaginative. Now make him do one of them eating ice cream & bacon!

I recall the initial post. Very talented.

I realize you meant "recall" as in "remember", but when I first saw it I thought recall it as in peanut butter contaminated with salmonella.
muffinsforpluto
His stuff gets posted like every 6 months. I like it, but it has been seen.
WoodbroWilson
Not by everyone. Like me for instance.
blessedarethelies
Does he make children's books?
JackieTreehornProductions
dunno, but he sure makes children't nightmares. Images like this creeped me out as a kid.
condescendingwonkavator
We have one coming out. I'm a writer and it's how we met :)
blessedarethelies
Can I get an update when it's out?
bigbattaboom
That is going to be beautiful! Definitely post about it when you guys finish it. I'm a full grown adult without kids but I'd want a copy :D
fartalert
It's gonna be magical. His style makes me think of an optimistic Neil Gaiman. Read Coraline as a youngster and fell in love

That's exactly what I was thinking

Yes

Hey, @imgur, maybe you should see if they would like to have an ad? This is content we like, and they have things to sell. Win win.
EngineerZero
To be fair, this has been posted several times before, all resulting in the guy selling stuff.
ShdwRrw
Horrible idea. This way works. If we did it that way, we would hate them too, since they didn't go through customs.
Dovahnein
What if there were a thing where if these things hit the FP they have a chance to become an ad? I don't know how these things work.
ipagani
Exactly!

You're a good girl OP. Your husband is a lucky and very talented man. I hope his amazing style get's recognized. Does he sell his work?
pillagebeforeyouburn
He has a website. I bought a few prints and they are excellent.
condescendingwonkavator
Thank you so much! He sells his work at http://www.gabriellehman.com
Wickd90
Thank you! I'll be checking this out for sure :D
CoyoteCrazy
If he could make a painting of some little kids playing baseball, I would for sure buy one.
wanderrrr
E-mail him.
ImLarryYourWaiter
If he illustrated a children's book, I would buy the shit out of it and read it to my nonexistent kids
condescendingwonkavator
We have one coming out this winter!
ImLarryYourWaiter
Woo! Please post updates!
douevenlurkbro
Hasn't this work been on the front page already??
ShogunSG
Does that mean it can't be there again? Plus he has some fantastic work.
douevenlurkbro
Who said it couldn't?
ShogunSG
No one said it couldn't. =D

Nice. You're a true keeper. I've seen this post awhile ago. Its great to hear an update. +1

Where's the cat tax?

I'm wildly allergic
iupvotedogs
Cat artwork of his would suffice. We're not picky.

I am.

Could be a Tim Burton look alike drawing of a cat...?

Are you trying to bribe us with giraffes?!

Upvoting Sarahsmom because she's got it going on.
alicefreak47
Correct me if I am wrong, but are you saying that you would masturbate to it?
PMMeYOURBoobsPlz
That's his secret; he's always masturbating.
Resuggested
I'm pretty sure he should see a doctor for that
alicefreak47
Consturbating? Perpetual lotion? Infinistroking? I want a name for this. We should have a vote.
Ordinance
I chuckled consecutively harder after each name. I second this motion.

his style reminds me of james and the giant peach (and TB in general)
Tryingtogetmypointacross
Did you say, "Marvelous pigs in satin"?
chiefrunswithscissors
I was thinking Alice in wonderland, mostly because of the hats and tea pots
JamEngulfer
TotalBiscuit?
JunWasHere
It both warms my heart and tortures my mind that TotalBiscuit is being thought of before Tim Burton here despite the context.
JamEngulfer
Oh, right. Well, I guess TotalBiscuit is referred to as TB quite a lot more.

much, much creepier

Oh man! I used to love those books back in the day!
TheL4gIsrael
What books?
YouWantABaccala
They're called "Scary Stories to tell in the Dark" and they used these illustrations. Do a Google image search
TheL4gIsrael
Thank you!
nutterbutter22
And Nightmare Before Christmas
TheSlowCheetah
thats exactly what i thought
Ryebread91
That's what movie I'm thinking of! And Corpse Bride.
AlexImguram
Talking of James and the Giant Peach, I was thinking the work looks more like detailed version of Quentin Blake's work
sk8tergater
I was thinking of TB the whole way through. Craziness.
imnotwearingunderweartoday
It reminds me of Jack and the cuckoo clock heart
Conflicter
Thinking the same thing. That was a strange movie, I like the music though.
imnotwearingunderweartoday
Have you looked more into Dionysos then? I was so excited to see the adaptation movie of their album La Mecanique du Coeur.
FatBoobsDontCount
tuberculosis? Harsh, man. Harsh
NoYolo4Jesus
Exactly my thoughts.
VonJello
1/2 James and the Giant Peach has almost nothing to do with TB or his style. Henry Selick, same director as Nightmare, directed JatGP and
WordsAreHardToThinkOf
Burton was a producer of both Nightmare and Peach so it has a lot to do with him...
VonJello
Sure he threw money at Peach,but it was all Selick on the direction.
WordsAreHardToThinkOf
I don't think you understand what a producer does if you think that.
wintercoat
Sadly few people actually know what a producer does. They just think they throw money around and that's it.
jongr
Producers can have a lot of say in artistic direction, and I would say my point stands in that the style seems related to BOTH 1/2
jongr
Tim Burton AND James and the Giant Peach. But duly noted, thanks for the fun fact. 2/2

jongr
I've never worked on a feature film, but I can say from my current work on a hit TLC show that our producers have a lot of say in production
VonJello
giving some input on the art style, but that Peach is 99.9% Lane Smith. If you're familiar with his work, you can see his style
VonJello
really shine through in Peach. I mean the only thing that's Burton-esque is Jack's cameo.
VonJello
Sorry, my big stupid fingers hit enter prematurely.
helloyesiwantalargepepperoni
When you wrote TB I thought, "tuberculosis? Okayyy"
jongr
if tuberculosis were an artistic style, this would be it. ;)
kylealex1596
It's never TB

I thought Totalbiscuit, and I've seen his attempt at art which is not this :p
DJKhaled
I thought Terry pratchet, I am not a smart man...
ElTigreChang
He obviously meant Terrorblade.
TotallyRealDoctor
Terry Pratchet's artist was Paul Kidby, just letting you know.

Could you help clarify what TB is?
