  • Miniatures So Good It's Scary!
    Apr 23 2024

    YouTube sensation Ara Bentley is known for her fantastic miniature recreations of pop culture icons such as the Addams Family House and the Beatlejuice House. Ara also built an incredible miniature house and furniture out of nothing but cardboard during Covid (when art supplies were in short supply in some places), creating a great community as people built and shared their own miniature cardboard creations with her and each other. She gives the best advice I have ever heard on how to organize minis and miniature supplies. Join us for a great chat about tiny things!

    Ara is on Instagram @bentleyhouseminis and host Becky Gannon is @madaboutminiatures.

  • How Small Can You Go?
    Mar 28 2024

    How tiny can you make something? That's the challenge Julie @ridiculoustinythings gives herself when it comes to making miniatures. She has tiny bears, for whom she has knitted even tinier sweaters. Her houses are mainly in 1:24 scale and she delights in seeing how minuscule her miniatures can get. Recently both Julie and her husband received Artisan status through the International Guild of Miniature Artisans (IGMA). So join us as we talk about ridiculous tiny things and the joy they bring!

  • When Life Gives You Lemons - Make Miniatures!
    Feb 27 2024

    One day watercolorist Shannon Taylor walked downstairs to her art studio to find it flooded. Reduced to making art in her tiny California apartment on a small side table, Shannon started creating tiny multi-dimensional worlds in antique compacts - and the response was overwhelming! We talk to Shannon about her inspiration and process for making these mini masterpieces, her job as Art Director for Children's Fairyland in California, & more! Host Becky Gannon is on Instagram as @madaboutminiatures and Shannon is on Instagram as @magicmakerdreamweaver.

Such a fun podcast!

Every episode has been fun! It's wonderful to hear from the creative minds behinds these works of art and the collectors who enjoy them. I am new to miniatures after being a 2D artist, and I am so impressed with the kindness and generosity amoung those who create and collect miniatures.
