The door installations created by Nicole Evans and Pat Farrell will most likely have some people crying 'Photoshop,' but that is not at all the case. These works of art are not only very much real, they look as magical in person as they do caught on camera and displayed on computer screens. Artistically made to stand alone, these doors look like portals to another world or place on earth.
