A couple of years ago a friend of mine introduced me to a book called Microworlds by Margherita Dessany. It is a wonderful book filled with whimsical images of tiny people photographed in the world at large. The juxtaposition delighted me, and for a long time, I've wanted to play with the idea myself, just for fun. That's what I'm doing here. But, before I do, please check out some of the artists who have inspired me below.

There are probably many more artists, but these are the ones I know about. If you have some favourites, please leave me a comment, and I'll be happy to add them to the list.

The inspiration of this collection of mine will be drawn from the everyday happenings in my own life -- the ordinary things we do as we live and learn. I want to bring some fun to them. A lightness. Some humour. And maybe even a little magic. I hope you enjoy my world!

Crumbling Crumble



Well, after an afternoon of hard work corralling dust-bunnies, the guys and I were hungry.  I offered to make some apple crumble for us all, which was met with many testosterone accented cheers of approval.  When I started to pull out my supplies, these teeny-in-stature, but big-at-heart men offered to help with the crumble.  How could I say no?  I had to exercise more patience than usual because the process of crumbling went much slower than if I could have done it myself.  But, you know, I could always use a bit of practice being more patient.  And, with their amazing attention to detail, this just might be the best apple crumble I have ever tasted!
