The Master of Miniature, Creating Magic Every Day

amazing miniatures // moss and fog

We love the art of making miniatures, and the way regular objects can become huge, scenery objects, when artfully arranged.

Artist Tatsuya Tanaka is a master, able to turn household objects into mini masterpieces.

Some of his recent pieces include divers jumping off clothespins into terry towel pools, hard boiled eggs that become soaking pools, ice fishermen dropping a lure into a broken phone screen, and even a surfer catching some awesome waves made of fried rice.

Some truly wonderful creativity at work, we love this collection. You can buy compilations of his work as gifts here.

See more of his work on Instagram with over 4 million followers, where he posts daily.
