Those that have been following me from the very start may remember this diorama and I thought as we approach 3000 followers I would take a look back to this first piece so that anybody new to my work can see where I've come from and why it features in my logo 😁 Very similar to 'Rose Cottage' that I completed recently this diorama was made by myself for my Nan to take with her after she left to a new house. Back then I hadn't discovered plastic sheet as a material to work with and so everything you can see building wise is built from card and paper. To mention, the brickwork was printed on paper making it up on word, it does the job but I would sooner carve it myself these days if I can. The scale is 4mm to 1ft meaning that it was tiny anyway. I made the trees by hand using florist wire very similar to how I make trees now. The one thing I didn't do was prime anything so I remember that making life harder as I had white gaps in places that did show. It still lives with my Nan and is on display consistently which has always been pleasing to see when we used to pop round before lockdown. Fingers crossed I will get to see my Nan and family soon and you too will see your loved ones! 🤞 #memories #firstartpiece #houses #cottage #cottagegarden #whereitallbegan #thestart #whereicamefrom #timecapsuleart #lockdownproblems #inspirationforthenation #modelmaker #artist #alookback #countryhouses #capturingthepast #memorymaker #meaningfulart #scalemodel #makersjourney #modelmaking #scratchbuilt #art #lettheartdothetalking #diorama #artistoninstagram #dioramaart #craftsmanship #artist #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CC3x2rFnZhu/?igshid=1kjvljbj9xjl

Hawkers Hut - Commission (1/26 scale) Completed: I had amazing confirmation today that Hawkers Hut had arrived safely upon its voyage to be united with its owner. No matter how well I package a piece, it's always a daunting part of the whole process for me, sending off the piece and waiting to hear it's all safe when it arrives! I thought to mark this occasion I would show a comparison of the initial sketch which I drew up and kept refering back to in order to make the piece... 👍 #hawkershut #hawkers #landmarks #cliffface #sketchtoart #nationaltrust #memorymaker #coastal #thisweekindioramas #recycledmaterials #hideaway #modelmaker #process #textures #dioramamaker #timecapsulescratchbuilder #timecapsuleart #fineart #scalemodel #makersjourney #modelmaking #scratchbuilt #art #lettheartdothetalking #diorama #artistoninstagram #dioramaart #craftsmanship #artist #handmade (at Hawkers Hut, Morwenstowe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUe1I_HoK1/?igshid=1igdf3phawjxy

Hawkers Hut - Commission (1/26 scale) Completed: This piece has been possibly the most significant of all that I have created to date. This isn't just any Time Capsule commission but a Time Capsule that needed to literally transport a place to a person so they can visit Hawkers Hut as many times as they wish. If you have followed this commission from its beginnings a month a go then you will understand that this was made for and in thought of a person who is battling cancer. This will serve as a way to evoke memories, feelings, smells and experiences that meant this place was so important to this special person. Now it is completed it will be travelling off to do its job and I dearly hope to provide comfort in a time of need. Flick through the finished photos to see some of the details and how I've left the back of the hut open to allow the perspective that Hawkers Hut provides, albeit in miniature 🙂 #hawkershut #hawkers #landmarks #cliffface #togetherwecanbeatcancer #capturingthepast #memorymaker #coastal #timecapsuleart #recycledmaterials #hideaway #modelmaker #timelapseart #textures #dioramamaker #timecapsulescratchbuilder #timecapsuleart #fineart #scalemodel #makersjourney #modelmaking #scratchbuilt #art #lettheartdothetalking #diorama #artistoninstagram #dioramaart #craftsmanship #artist #handmade (at Hawkers Hut, Morwenstowe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEKLAiYnDbx/?igshid=1avz7icmkpbei

Hawkers Hut - Commission (1/26 scale) I couldn't help myself but start on this commission as I literally knew how I wanted to go about it. I found a facing image of the front of the hut which I scaled to size on the laptop. I then printed it out onto some sticky label paper and cut out each piece of wood from the image and applied these to plasticard of varying thicknesses. This allowed me to get the exact shape of the pieces of wood and to scale 👌 you can see I've gone in and added the latches and hinges already 😁 #hawkershut #hawkers #getaway #cliffface #sea #capturingthepast #memorymaker #wooden #timecapsuleart #poetry #hideaway #modelmaker #artist #terracedhouses #dioramamaker #timecapsulescratchbuilder #timecapsuleart #modelart #scalemodel #makersjourney #modelmaking #scratchbuilt #art #lettheartdothetalking #diorama #artistoninstagram #dioramaart #craftsmanship #artist #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CDUGIC9ncUH/?igshid=1m9vyy6vxjog7
