We are scheduled to
make a special appearance in Dallas on May 2nd thru 3rd at the Texas
Miniature Showcase. Look for future ads on this show. It should be
great.
Ligia's
Miniatures, consisting of some of the finest hand-made pieces, has
joined this website. About Ligia in her own words:
"I have been working
with miniatures for over 36 years in different media.
At first, I taught crochet,
tatting, embroidery, tiny water colors, and
scrimshaw. Later on I
discovered enameling, the art of melting powdered
glass over metal. I
decided that this was my favorite medium. An ancient
art, it was mostly used in
Icons or Church items in medieval times and was
also popular in Asia. I
started to introduce this art into our miniature
world. Presently I
devote the majority of my time to this work, often
partnering with other
artists, jewelers, and wood workers, to create scale
reproductions of museum
pieces. My favorites are the Faberge eggs, portraits
and
French and Italian furniture. By replacing Porcelain
and Pietre Dure surfaces with
enameled panels I create my own
interpretations of these
pieces. Many original three dimensional items have
also well received."
