Tiny Stare #1 Bostion Terrier & #2 Boston Terrier's Twin 1:12 scale Dollhouse Miniature Pets

Just revising this entire blog post, keeping it short and sweet,  In this post I'm launching Tiny Stares, which is a term of endearment for my creations in 1/12 scale Tiny Stares #1 is Boston Terrier, and #2 is Boston Terrier's Twin.  As I've embarked on this new journey into the worlds of 1/12 scale.  I keep in mind a constant meditation "Order is heaven's first law."  that is a quote by Alexander Pope the way in which I work is evolving to the way I was in my early 20's when I had great enthusiasm for living, and I was really organized, everything I owned had a place, and my personal property was organized, and spotless, all that began to change when I started collecting things, and it was more things than I had any space for, but I've shed most of that, mostly to just to the materials and supplies, appropriate for my creative pursuits and organizing those materials so that they're easily accessible when creating. Of course that is a work in progress, and so I meditate on those five words (Order Is Heaven's First Law) daily as reminder to clean as I go.

 There is a degree of Joy, and there are challenges in creating, but the Joy comes from overcoming the challenges, whatever they are.   The art projects themselves are challenges, and there are plenty on my list, so I don't plan on accepting commissions until I've reached Tiny Stares number 30 or so, I will post on here once I'm ready to accept commission. These are the first animals I've created with fur, and 1/12 scale detailing.  I began Tiny Stares with a personal challenge, that was to create after  one of my favorites breeds of Dogs, which for me is a toss up between a French Bulldog, Boston Terrier, and Pug, someday I might have a real one around.
