"Time Out" ... Taking Time to Help

Recently, there's been a long pause for me in creating my miniature pieces. I had to stop working on my art for most of the month of March so I could help my friend with his aging parents. They had recently lost their home due to the housing crisis and quickly needed a place to stay. ... But things are getting back on track now so it shouldn't be too long until I can complete my last set of miniature auction items that I had been working on before I had to stop.

I've set up a new work bench area where distractions should be kept down to a minimum. Hopefully, I can turn my focus back to my work now ... push the invisible 'reboot button' ... and have another 'go' at it.

Showing off my new work area! ... It looks a little strange with the 'miss-matched' lights, but it should make a good, well-lit work area. :-)




"Check out those legs!" ... I have a pair of painted cloth witch doll legs that have been waiting quite awhile for a body. I will eventually get back to creating art dolls too. For now, I'm more focused on miniature art.

Check out these Amazing "Witchy-Themed" Miniatures!

A kind, intelligent, delightful woman recently purchased one of my ebay auctions. She sent me the link to her website so I could see her miniature collections ... They're great! ... Occasionally, she even has her work printed in two miniature magazines: "The American Miniaturist" and "Dollhouse Miniatures."  Her witchy displays are so fun, I wanted to share them with you!

Check these out! They are very creative! ...  Ketan Gajria Miniatures
