omo~ that's awesome~
are you planning to have classes or sth like that?
i would love to learn the basic skills~
did u take classes to learn these???
oh man~ those chinese letters, did u write ...
Thank you.
I started learning in Hk about 3 yrs ago. I continue to learn new things whenever I go to HK for vacation. As I get better, I try to create and design my own works. I still go to HK everyyear to take private lessons. I also buy lots of Japanese books to study.
As for classes, I might do that in the future. Will have to do lots of planning first. Some things to really consider is supplies (not available in Canada), cost vs expense. How much to charge so it's afforable but I won't lose money, a place to teach, lesson plan, blah blah blah...

oh wow .. You must spent a lots of time!
I have seen them for sell .. (similar) but .. so expensive ..
no, I don't have lots of time. In fact, I have little time! With wedding coming up, house shopping, etc, I almost have no time to sleep! I just work on my hobby whenever I could afford a whole day. Usually, once you start, you can't stop because the materials will dry out and can be tossed out. So got to be quick and plan way ahead. Through my learning, lord knows how much stuff I've wasted!
Yes, very expensive indeed! Especially in Canada. The materials and tools weigh heavy, shipping to Canada cost so much!
The process of making them is long. eg: using clay and tools to form shape, wait a few days to dry. Apply paint, wait few more days to dry, then apply gloss, wait more days to dry.
On top of all that, you are paying for brain power and creativity and time of the creator too.
The only country that you can buy them real cheap is Thailand.

I think you are very talented. Hope we can see more of your work.
Thank you Myversa!
As for clay, my next project will be a rotating sushi bar. I also have a couple others of non-clay miniature doll house to be worked on in the near future.
I also like to crochet. Starting another post.
BTW, I left you an email and sms about your order. Pls look.
