Avalon

As the weak sunlight fights an unequal battle against the intrusive shadows of December, my disfigured living room transforms into a place removed from reality. The Praying Girl captures the evasive light in the palm of her hands, and incorporates it into her eternal conversation with the Divine. The Girls watch from the distance of yesterday. Nothing moves, and yet, everything breathes.

A day at the park

The bus is ready to go, departing from one of my old Triang dolls houses. The destination is the "Parque de Recreo," or Leisure Park. There are lots of nice things to visit there: a theater, a zoo, and not to forget the fireworks at the Grand Palace!

In sum: a great way to spend the day with the family! Let's go!

Full Metal Jacket

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well!

Here's a sneak peek of one of my old dolls houses. It's an all metal construction -no wood whatsoever- and quite worn and rusty, which gives it the magical, 'spooky' appearance which I love so much! I believe it to be a Triang, but I'm not sure. Ok, that's it for now, got to go. Have a great day!

The Wall Fountain

Hi friends, how are you doing?

This is a very old metal wall fountain I have; all rusted and with chipped paint. It's also incomplete, and maybe because of all this, I love it!

It's just one of the hundreds of items I have, destined to be used in one project or another. The wall it's up against was made by me a while ago, and was used for a photo shoot of some old toy trains. I think they go very well together, don't you?

Centennial robin

Hello friends! Here's another picture of the little porcelain robin; this time resting on the parapet of the old "Centennial" dolls house. Isn't it a beauty!?

A cute little robin.

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well!

Here's a photo of a very small and cute porcelain robin that I took today.

It was love at first sight when I saw it in the miniatures shop, so I decided to 'adopt' it.

I made it a little diorama with wood and hand-made paper flowers, so I could take a few nice pics of it, and here's the result. The flowers are not made by me, by the way!

Below is a pic of the robin in the palm of my hand for scale. Have a great day!!
