I've been having a look around the Internet for some information on this, but I'm not sure I know where to look. I read an article in the paper a while back about some artists who made tiny little models/sculptures, and I was thinking about writing about that kind of art. Unfortunately, I can't remember it clearly enough to research it properly myself.

I'm hoping somebody knows what I mean and can point me in the right direction. I need to know what materials were used and the method involved in this type of art, working on a very small scale. Thanks!

Hey Jetpack,
I'm really no expert on this though I have an idea what you're talking about. People do miniature art with loads of things. Ripley's Believe it Or Not has many amazing "sculptures" and other things people have built of a miniature level (like with toothpicks, Popsicle sticks, or anything else under the sun). I don't know if the would have anything about it on their web page but it's worth a try.

Good luck with your research, I hope you find what you're looking for.

Thanks, Dakota. I'll look into it. :)

EDIT: I was looking for the term "microsculpture", methinks. Case closed. ;)



I was flummoxed by fractious Franny's decision to abrogate analgesics for the moribund victims of the recent conflagration. Of course, to display histrionics was discretionary, but I did so anyways, implicating a friend in my drama to make the effect cumulative. I think a misanthrope would have a prosaic appellation, perhaps one related to autonomy and the rejection of anthropocentrism. I think they wouldn't think much of the prominence of watching the coagulation of tea to prognosticate future malevolent events, not even if those events were related to jurisprudence.
