Editor’s Note I am an artist! Say it with me: “I am an artist!” The first step in becoming a great artist is to believe in yourself and your abilities. You’re biggest critic is you!!!

Need a little inspiration? This issue looks at a few artists and crafters who, through passion, determination and hard work, have succeeded to change their hobbies into full-time jobs.

We will also be looking at “Mass Production vs Handmade”.

For most artists this is a very touchy subject, as they feel that the public and clients don’t appreciate the experience, time, love and attention that go into handmade products.

The article also covers the other side of the story. Mass production has as many advantages as disadvantages. People have to be educated to understand both sides of the story and to make informed choices when buying handmade vs mass produced items.

We hope that our article will help to shed some light on the subject.

Don’t forget to take part in our arts and crafts challenges.

Feel free to send us photos of your work.

Handmade VS Mass Production Mass Production involves making many copies of products, very quickly. Using assembly line techniques to send partially complete products to workers, who each work on individual step, rather than having a worker work on a whole product from start to finish.

Hand-made isn’t necessarily better than machine-made.

Which is better depends on materials used, the precision required, the attention to detail required, and the overall design, It also depends on the person making it.

When something is advertised as being hand-made it is usually because:

It is something that can benefit from attention to detail and a certain amount of artistry.

The person making it by hand can check the quality of each bit of material as it is used and ensure that everything fits together absolutely perfectly.

10

The Arts and Crafts Movement began primarily as a search for authentic and meaningful styles for the nineteenth century and as a reaction to the eclectic revival of historic styles of the Victorian era and to “soulless� machine-made production as a consequence of the technological shift brought on by the Industrial Revolution.

Considering the machine to be the root cause of all repetitive and ordinary evils, some of the protagonists of this movement turned entirely away from the use of machines and towards handcraft which tended to concentrate their production on hands on sensitive but well-heeled patrons.

11

What does original and unique mean?

When is a product not original and unique?

Those who sought compromise between the efficiency of the machine and the skill of the craftsman thought it a useful endeavour to seek the means through which a true craftsman could master a machine to do his bidding - in opposition to the reality which was much more common during the Industrial Revolution, namely that humans had become virtual extensions of the industrial machine.

Source: http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Arts_and_Crafts_Movement 12

For those devotees who embrace a strict definition of “hand-made”, let me clarify this. Chinese factories aren’t productmaking robots. China’s major resource wasn’t an overflow of machines, that could make anything. It was hundreds of millions of people willing to do the work.

Much of what you can buy at a retail chain is 100% made by hand - the hands of overseas factory workers.

13

Continuous and Mass Customisation Options While mass production, batch production and job order work are all separate options, businesses often end up using a combination of different systems.

Technology and product development often allow companies to offer customisation even with mass customisation. Part of the process is mass or batch, and then it moves to job order styles in order to customise the product.

This raises the value offering of the business considerably.

“They don’t make ‘em like they used to…” is a phrase commonly uttered in reference to the quality of a product inspired by mass production. The days of a craftsman that learned a skill passed down from a family member’s business or by way of an apprenticeship are nearly gone for good.

Mass production has streamlined the process of high volume low cost output of many manufactured goods. As companies are forced to compete for their share of the marketplace, the consumer has dictated that cost is king.

http://smallbusiness.chron.com/advantages-disadvantages-massbatch-job-order-manufacturing-systems-21513.html 14

Originality VS Copies This article is not about originality VS copies, There are many types of factories, but all factories have something in common, manufactured products are mass produced.

In mass production, the product is made the same way, over and over again, thus the product is cheaper to make and therefore cheaper to buy.

In custom production, the product is made one at a time, to the buyer's specification. In this way, it will be more expensive to make and therefore to buy. However, it will be exactly what the customer wants and/or needs as opposed to a mass produced product which may or may not fit the customer's criteria.

but rather about hand made VS mass production.

In our next issue, we will do an article about “Originality VS Copies” and “Copy right in South Africa and Internationally”.

15

In order to support the handmade community, and promote the importance of buying handmade goods, we asked artists, designers and shop keepers to provide us with 101 reasons why one should buy handmade. Here are some of their replies:

1. Help contribute to establishing a new economic model.

2. The exception of postage cost - contribute to decrease in fossil fuel erosion. (purchasing mass produced products generally come from overseas - barging it all over, production costs, sweatshops, fair labour, etc.)

3. This new wave of craftspeople are using recycled materials. This is CRUCIAL. 4. Purchase from artisans/crafts people who ENJOY creating.

5. Support the artisan directly..

6. Support local community.

7. Buying from crafts people is a conscious decision. People need to be more conscious of spending, of where their hard-earned money is going, changing hands, etc.

Every Tribe had a Potter African pottery has always used raw materials, easily found in the environment, like clay. Clay is found in abundance everywhere on the African continent and South Africa is no different. Most potters in a village were women because they were the ones who needed the pots for cooking and for their homes. When the potters were men, they only did it for ceremonial vessels. Furthermore, woman potters were not allowed to decorate their pots and utensils with animals or human figures. This is because these fiqures were generally reserved as art done by male potters.

18

Born in 1934 in Mabile Village near the Kruger Park in Limpopo, Rebecca was introduced to the traditional crafts practiced by women as she assisted her mother in activities such as painting walls. Around the age of 12 she started making ceramic dolls and was introduced to the craft of making traditional cooking pots by her grandmother, furthering her skills at a later stage in this discipline under her sister-in - law’s training. Forced to become self - sufficient after the death of her husband, she started selling her pots which enabled her to support herself and her family.

In spite of her slightly impaired sight, her pots are all perfectly balanced and well proportioned with the rim exactly round and level, with a flawless, polished surface. According to the artist, she dreams of her pots while asleep, and draws them on her heart so that they can become reality in the morning. She does not use any modern equipment such as a potter’s wheel or electric kiln to produce her perfectly formed pieces, their aesthetic quality hinges on the simplicity of design, seemingly transforming ordinary objects into works of art.

Rebecca collects her clay from the river bed near her village and uses the traditional Venda method when forming her pots, which at first are only completed from the middle to the top, then the lower half is formed. When the pot is leather hard, it is decorated with graphite (phomo), grayish in colour and ochre (Luvhundi) from Thoyandou, a red powdered soil. The Graphite is obtained from Zimbabwe or mined in Venda. The pots are then fired in a pit using weed and cow dung for fuel, after which they are polished.

Sculpture is another outlet for Rebecca’s talent. She often depicts animals such as elephants or figures featuring local men and women, portraying the problems arising from men who have ventured away from the traditional lifestyle in search of meaningful employment, while women are left behind, locked in the past. In this sculptural piece, resembling a flower or cacti, she pushes the boundaries of traditional Venda pottery, using the bold shape as a metaphor for female sexuality, in a possible response to her experiences as a women in a patriarchal society.

Passing on her skills has become an important aspect of Rebecca’s work, often hosting workshops in extended housing and studio facilities which she has built, passing on skills that have been taught for generations and which have now become part of mainstream culture.

Clay bodies can be broken down into three main categories: Earthware, stoneware and porcelain.

Earthenware is a secondary clay.

Jacob Hendrick Pierneef Born 13 August 1886 Died 4 October 1957 Pierneef, was one of the most prominent SA Artist whose modemist and geometric style revolutionised South African art in the early 20th century. Pierneef is often named as South Africa’s greatest painter and his work is widely praised for its combination of raw genius and dedication to technique.

Pierneef excelled at landscape portrayals of the Highveld which provided a lifelong source of inspiration for him.

Pierneef’s style presents a formalised and ordered view of South African landscape, often monumental in conception, uninhabited and influenced by the dramatic light and colour of the Highveld. One of South Africa’s leading landscape artists and the first artist whose work was conditioned by local environment, his distinctive style is widely recognised.

New BeginningZ has been in operation since 2001, with the main focus being children living and working on the streets.

In 2003, due to HIV/Aids Pandemic we included Child Headed Households to our focus group and in 2004 we had to include yet another vulnerable group - abandoned babies and toddlers.

We cater for children between the ages of birth and up to 18 years. It is of paramount importance to us to render services and programmes that is in the best interest of every individual child that we deal with.

Just as soon as you think you've seen the worst of cases, you come across yet another one. Abusers don't discriminate against colour, creed or age. Child Abuse is rife in our country and unfortunately not nearly enough is being done to protect the future of our country, the children. Government is shirking their responsibility when it comes to providing for destitute families, therefore making it increasingly difficult for the poorest of the poor to survive.

Abuse & Poverty are the main contributing factors to street children and abandoned baby statistics in our country.

Lanie-Michelle Lombard Trust Wilson’s disease is a genetic disorder that is fatal unless detected and treated before serious illness from copper poisoning develops.

Wilson’s disease affects approximately one in 30,000 people worldwide. The genetic defect causes excessive copper accumulation in the liver or brain.

Small amounts of copper are as essential as vitamins. Copper is present in most foods and most people have much more copper than they need. Healthy people excrete copper they don't need but Wilson’s disease patients cannot.

Copper begins to accumulate immediately after birth. Excess copper attacks the liver or brain, resulting in hepatitis, psychiatric, or neurologic symptoms. The symptoms usually appear in late adolescence. Patients may have jaundice, abdominal swelling, vomiting of blood, and abdominal pain. They may have tremors and difficulty walking, talking and swallowing. They may develop all degrees of mental illness including homicidal or suicidal behaviour, depression, and aggression. Women may have menstrual irregularities, absent periods, infertility, or multiple miscarriages.

No matter how the disease begins, it is always fatal if it is not diagnosed and treated.

The first part of the body that copper affects is the liver. In about half of Wilson’s disease patients the liver is the only affected organ. The initial physical changes in the liver are only visible under the microscope. When hepatitis develops, patients are often thought to have infectious hepatitis or infectious mononucleosis when they actually have Wilson’s disease hepatitis.

Testing for Wilson’s disease should be performed in individuals with unexplained, abnormal liver tests.

South Africa’s arts and culture are as varied as one might expect from such a diverse nation. The blend of local cultures and diverse influences make for a melting pot of creativity that never disappoints.

As custodians of South Africa’s diverse cultural, artistic and linguistic heritage, the Department of Arts and Culture aims to develop and preserve South African culture to ensure social cohesion and nation-building.

South Africa’s cultural and creative industry is a good revenue generator, and still has great potential to produce more and contribute to job creation.

The Cultural Industries Growth Strategy capitalises on the economic potential of the craft, music, film, publishing and design industries.

The Department of Arts and Culture provides support in the form of financing, management capacity, advocacy and networking, and by developing public-private partnerships and other initiatives that use culture as a tool for urban regeneration.

Worldwide, the turnover of cultural industries makes this the fifth-largest economic sector, which comprises design, the performing arts, dance, film, television, multimedia, cultural heritage, cultural tourism, visual arts, crafts, music and publishing.

The department has entered into partnerships with significant stakeholders to map the cultural industries.

Cabinet has identified the creative and cultural industries as one of the drivers of economic growth and job creation in the implementation of the New Growth Path.

The Industrial Policy Action Plan 2 identifies the cultural industries, in particular the craft sector, music, jewellery production, clothing, leather, footwear and textiles as some of the sectors that will be subjected to focused and significant support by the State.

Make a Miniature Item using Polymer Clay Remember be as unique and creative as possible.

What is Polymer Clay?

Polymer Clay is an oven baked modelling compound, widely used to sculpt dolls’ house miniatures and food, scale dolls and figures, and scale models. A form of Poly Vinyl Chloride,it remains workable until cured by baking at the specific temperature recommended for that particular brand of clay. Various brands of clay have different handling and finished properties.

Clay brands are often chosen by what type of work you want to achieve with the clay. Stiffer clays are generally used for forming repeated patterns which are cut as slices from canes.

Softer clays are used for modelling and blending sculptures.

I first met Colleen Downs, aka LoopyBoopy, several years ago at Etsy when she joined me and others in our campaign for a dolls and miniatures category on that site. The first time I saw one of Colleen's dolls, will admit I wasn't sure what to think about it but the longer I looked at the pic, the more I began to like the doll. There was something about the eyes and facial expression...

The Photo-a-Day Challenge, also known as a Photo 365, was created by photographers to improve their skills and to share what they have learned with others in the photography community. Artists can borrow this idea to improve their art skills by starting a Sketch-aDay Challenge for themselves. Even better, you can encourage your art group, either online or off, to join you. Here’s how to get started on the challenge and how to find something to sketch for 365 days.

Without a steady stream of ideas, it can be easy for an artist to give up on a sketching challenge after just a few weeks.

To get ideas and stay motivated at: https://creativemarket.com/blog/2014/02/26/ how-to-do-a-sketch-365-or-sketch-a-day34

There are a few items an artist will need to set up a successful sketching challenge. The most important tool, of course, is a sketchbook. Here are some tips: 

Choose a sketchbook that you can carry anywhere with you. One that fits in your purse or tote is best.



Find a sketch book that has a rigid cover. This will make it easier to sketch when you don't have a hard surface to place your sketchbook on while you draw.



Pick a sketchbook that has smooth paper. Smooth paper is easier to draw on with a pen or pencil. 

Decorate the cover of your sketchbook or buy one that is already beautiful. This will boost your inspiration every time you open it.

Use mediums that are easy to carry, store and use, such as coloured pencils, pens or graphite pencils. A collection of other mediums is also a good idea since switching mediums can induce creativity.

Next, you will need a blog to share the sketches. This isn’t mandatory, but it does help to motivate an artist if there is an audience waiting for the next sketch to appear. You can get a free blog at Blogger.com, WordPress.com or Yovia.com.

You will also need a scanner or digital camera to upload the sketches to the blog in digital form.

ART HISTORY

Narmer's Palette (31st Century) Ancient Egyptians believed that rather than creating art (for which they had no word), they were creating works of beauty that emulated from their profound reverence for the gods.

And ancient Egyptian art reflected this reverence. But it also reflected a great sense of order, giving rise to a distinct artistic style which remained virtually unchanged for over 3000 years. The following are samples of the most distinguished works of ancient Egyptian art.

Talk or write about your emotions.

Emotion: a strong feeling deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or relationships

Talk or write about colour.

Yellow Cheerful, Sunny, Optimistic, overpowering

Talk or write about lines.

What does the word emotion mean?

What kind of emotions do we experience on a day-to-day basis?

How do certain colours make you feel?

Red Intense, Love, Heartbeat, Confront What kinds of lines are there?

Vertical lines = Strong Horisontal lines = Peaceful Curved lines = Happiness http://www.infoplease.com/spot/colors1.html 46

http://www.vanseodesign.com/web-design/visual-grammar-shapes/

Now, Do the exercise!!!

Warm up: Draw lines, using pencil on newspaper, based upon certain feelings. Draw the emotions you experienced the last week.

There is no right or wrong. Draw what you feel and which line expresses that feeling for you.

You can also use music, to enhance your mood and that will help you to draw lines based on the music you are hearing.

Now you can do the same exercise, with paint, using at least the three basic colours: Yellow, Red and Blue.

Don’t forget the paintbrush(es) and water.

We will be doing a basic colour wheel in our next issue.

Take your time, stand back from time to time. Take a good look at your work. Is it moving in the direction you want it to? Are the desired feelings starting to emerge?

You can, when your painting is completed, hang it where people can see it. You can ask them how they interpret the work. What emotions do they see in the work? Is it the same, what you felt, when you did the painting? http://www.kinderart.com/painting/emotion.shtml 47

When we started Folding Trees, back in June 2008, paper crafts were often neglected amongst today’s crafters. We saw the need to showcase that there’s so much more to paper crafting than just scrapbooking, and our goal was to collect the best tutorials we have found on the net, inspire you by highlighting amazing paper creations from talented artists and crafters, and share our own paper crafts and tutorials.

Customer relations is a continuous process whose principal tool is communication. If you have any complaints, please contact Customer Relations.

Customer relationship models seek to acquire, develop and retain customers. Small businesses must remain vigilant when it comes to managing customer data and strike a balance between offering valuable promotions and offers and inundating customers with unsolicited mail. Businesses should obtain permission from customers before sending offers via email or mail to help create an atmosphere of mutual respect.

Q: How can I manage my business cash flow?

Understand that cash flow plans are not glimpses into the future. They're educated guesses that balance a number of factors, including your customers' payment histories, your own thoroughness at identifying upcoming expenditures, and your vendors' patience.

Watch out for assuming without justification that receivables will continue coming in at the same rate they have recently, that payables can be extended as far as they have in the past, that you have included expenses such as capital improvements, loan interest and principal payments, and that you have accounted for seasonal sales fluctuations. http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/66008 57

Filani Crafter's Clay is an extremely versatile polymer clay, suitable for use by professionals, adults or children. The clay remains soft until it is baked. This allows you to rework your creation until you’re 100% satisfied.

These are just some of the crafts that FILANI Polymer Clay can be applied to: •Mosaic tiles and inserts; •Scrapbooking embellishments; •Ornaments; •Covered cutlery; •Beads, pendants, fake- and semi-precious stones; •Buttons; •Cake toppers; •Miniatures; •Mixed media projects; •Photo/picture transferring; •Craft parties; •Covered vessels, mirrors, tins and wooden objects; •Key Rings; •Fly-fishing lures; •School projects;

Filani Crafter's Clay can be treated in various ways once baked - we offer a range of finishes and it can be painted, sanded, drilled, varnished, or re- baked with other media.

By registering on our site, you can enjoy access to our wide range of polymer clay tutorials, projects, tips and various polymer clay jewellery techniques.

58

Filani Modelling Clay is super-supple, and lends itself to a wide range of crafts. It is a polymer modelling clay which is perfect for sculptures as it can be continually worked on and then later reused to sculpt something else.

The best part about polymer clay is that it doesn't dry out, so artists do not have to worry about keeping their unfinished work sealed.

This allows the artist to continue sculpting until he/she is satisfied with his/her artwork.

When satisfied, it can be oven-baked to harden. It can be covered with other coloured polymer clay, painted, glazed or techniqued.

Hardened Filani Polymer Clay doesn't need sealing to avoid damage from water/humidity and/or bugs later. http://www.polymerclay.co.za/en/ http://www.mosaicmad.com/shop/en/ 59

I would love to welcome one and all to our discussion corner, and ask that everyone contributes something to this page. It is all about solving or discussing questions.

We will teach and learn from each other. No answer is final and therefore open for discussion.

Q: What is the difference between Arts and Crafts?

A: We are living in a modern age, where we experience a lot more freedom, and as a result we see that the shift between Arts and Crafts have become small to non-existent.

Art is always a reflection of our times and what happens in everyday life.

During the late 19th century there was a specific art movement called the “Arts and Crafts� movement. This group was faced with arts and crafts question. To the right is an example of a stained glass design, coming from this period.

http:// global.britannica.com/ EBchecked/ topic/37281/Artsand-CraftsMovement

60

Q:When may you call yourself and artist?

A: You can call yourself an artist when you become aware of your own creative ability. To be an artist is to live artistry. Artists create with word and actions. The practical execution lies in the need to bring into being.

The freedom you permit yourself to create something new from an existing material/medium.

For example: Taking mud and creating a sculpture.

Taking a brush and creating a painting.

Q: What do I do when I make a mistake, do I...?

If I make a mistake it becomes a chance to approach the dilemma/predicament creatively and to change it into an opportunity. I call myself a creative cook. I only ever use the book for one recipe and that recipe is MAGIC… and no-one can change that. The rest become opportunities to create something new and different from my “dream pot”.

Enjoy your life and always be yourself.

Questions and Answers Here

Q: What surfaces can I use to mosaic on?

Mosaics can be laid onto a variety of surfaces, and, as long as the correct procedures are followed, they will be hardwearing and waterproof and have a professional, quality finish.

Traditional mosaics were laid onto a cement bed. Now we can also mosaic onto all kinds of different surfaces, such as wood, old furniture, plaster, ceramic, terracotta or fiberglass. http://www.mandalaart.com.au/?

Q: How do I wash felt?

You only have two options in this matter. You can hand wash it or you can machine wash it. There are pros and cons to both methods.

Read more: http://www.doityourself.com/stry/howto-wash-felt#ixzz3OLv9roqZ 62

Q: How do I soften Polymer Clay?

A: You will need heat to soften polymer clay. You can roll the clay in a ball and keep it in your hands until it softens.

Another option is to run warm water over the clay until it softens. Sit on it for a little while. You can also use a little bit of baby oil. (Very little, too much can make it sticky).

Q: Why can’t I get my candle out of the mould?

There can be more than one reason. The first most common problem is that you may have poured your wax, into the mould, while it was too hot. Two other possibilities are: your second pour may be over the fill line or your wax is too soft.

Q: How can cheaper craft paint influence my project?

More expensive craft paints, normally, have a much higher pigment concentration, stronger degrees of light-fastness and less colour shift from wet to dry.

CHARLIEN MULLER (Born CHARLIEN KRIEL) Date of Birth: 28 November 1972 Place of Birth: Pretoria Charlien was born in Pretoria and still stays in the area. She completed her matric

at HoĂŤrskool Hercules.

At first she worked, full time in the corporate world, and later became a stay at home

mom.

In 2008 she decided to follow her life-long passion and love by practicing and studying art full-time.

66

She clearly has a wonderful lust for the cheerful things in life and a sense of humour that is reflected in her colourful artworks.

Initially the famous Portchie Viljoen’s work was her greatest inspiration. This was because of his rich colour schemes and the sometimes distorted depiction and abstract union of various themes in one painting.

However she has developed into an artist in her own right, with her own unique style. Her works reflect an unbelievably wide variety of warm, colourful, realistic and abstract landscapes, self - portraits, seascapes, buildings, plants and flowers, still - lives as well as nature and animal scenery.

These paintings were done in various mediums, oils, acrylics and oil pastels.

67

Several of her artworks have been displayed in many galleries and exported to countries such as Australia, France, Italy and even the USA. She is clearly blessed with a wonderful imagination and power of observation and she doesn’t hesitate to experiment. However her unique style and love for colour and the abstract depiction of topics shine through in most of her artworks.

During the last few years Charlien has achieved great success as an artist. She experienced a huge increase in sales and she even has several corporate companies as clients.

68

The popularity of her work has lead to a considerable increase in the price of her artworks, and paintings.

Her artworks that are

displayed in over 300 homes throughout the world, are clearly a good investments.

Today, Charlien also offers art classes full-time on an individual basis. Several of her students’ pieces/artworks have been displayed at various exhibitions.

Charlien’s story, in the art world, is a clear

inspiration for would be artists and serves as proof that with enough passion and determination anyone can change their artistic talent into a full time occupation. For more information about Charlien and her artwork — see her facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/charlien.muller 69

Paint an animal.

Use bright colours in a different than “usual� way.

73

Buy a new colouring book and colouring pencils and colour as much as possible.

Dr. Miriam Bachmann, a specialist in child and adolescent psychology, confirms that "colouring promotes fine and gross motor skills which are of importance later on when learning how to read and write". World Kids Colouring Day is all about creativity.

“It’s a sleepy little town, but it really comes to life on a Sunday — that’s when the hippies come out,” says resident Marcel Pullen who runs a pottery studio and shop with her husband.

World-renowned potter, Richard Pullen, at his studio in Bathurst.

Over recent decades Bathurst has morphed into what is often referred to as an ‘arty community’, with a resident population made up to a large extent of craftsmen, artists, and entrepreneurs.

Richard Pullen who is internationally renowned, as a potter, has his studio alongside the main road (R67) in Bathurst, where if they’re there at the right time, visitors may be lucky enough to see him working at his wheel. http://www.theannouncer.co.za/richard-pullens-bathurststudio-and-gallery/ 85

Clarens is so well-known for its arts and crafts that it is often referred to as the Art Mecca of South Africa. And given that Clarens has over 20 galleries and that so many artists have chosen Clarens as their base, this is hardly surprising. Visitors are invited to do the Art Route, or simply stroll from gallery to gallery to enjoy the wide variety of artwork on offer. Many of the galleries and artists also offer courses and workshops.

Clarens is an art-lover’s paradise: spend the day browsing through the many art galleries – you’re bound to be inspired. The galleries have a wide range of South African artworks, and many well-known South African artists live and work in Clarens.

Miniature art or model art is a genre that focuses on art (especially painting, engraving and sculpture) in much-smaller-than-usual sizes. Miniature art societies, such as the World Federation of Miniaturists (WFM), provide applicable definitions of the term. An often-used definition is that a piece of miniature art is capable of being held in the palm of the hand, or that it covers less than 100 cm².

Miniature art has been made for over 1000 years and is cherished by collectors. The U.S. White House, the Smithsonian American Art Museum and museums around the world have collections of miniature art.

http://modernminihouses.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html 88

Today there is an international revival. There is a tendency to think of Miniature Art as something new and trendy. In fact it is one of the world’s oldest art-forms; having been discovered throughout all previous art civilisations, many of which pursued the practice of painting and sculpting “in the small”.

Sculpture, which must be of lasting materials, should fit within a 170mm cube, including the base. http://miniatureartsocietyofsa.co.za/?page_id=8 89
