My wife is very confusing or possibly a very confused person. Ok, her background is art. She received a full four year scholarship to the School of Visual Arts; She studied illustration. The part that really blows my mind is that her porfolio she submitted consistted of a few drawings and a lot of photography.
When she was in highschool, she also had a darkroom in her basement, and the real kicker was that she was photographing with infrared film. This brings us to the present . You would think that she would have an understanding of what I do, but no. She spends a lot time complaining that I want to travel to work on my projects, she complains about the expense, she complains anything related or time I spend, and recently, I built a modest darkroom in our garage, well, she was against it, stating that I should just go digital, since it is quicker, and in her mind more efficient.
She never talks to me about my work, she never looks at my work, she has no opinion, and when I return from a month long photographic expedition, she complains about how she had to take out the trash and change a few 8light bulbs.
However, if my wife travels wih me she is very helpful. She speaks two dialects of chinese, so when we went to Hong Kong and china, she helped me carry my equipment, she talked to the local people for me, helping me gain access to places. I would tell her what I would like to photoggraph, she usually found away fro me to do it, yet she would then spend the night complaining about it, no matter how successful the day of photographing went or felt.
I am so perplexed. Oh she also thinks that every photo I take of her makes look bad, and she thinks i do it deliberately.
I think the question should be does anyone understand woman?
