Hello there and happy spring!

Today I'm posting the picture of the necklace I created for this event:  UP FOR LIFE

"Pix-cell Mario" artwork of Kohei Nawa

the picture I'm posting today is not of one of my works, this is a real piece of art of the Japanese artist Kohei Nawa.
I had the pleasure to work with him in occasion of his first solo show in Italy that was at the gallery where I work.
Kohei is a very nice guy and an extremely talented artist, he's one of my favorite ever. This is a small pice of a Mario Bros figure covered with glass beads, maybe this is not one of the more representative and important pieces, but of course is one of my fav.!
Few days ago was Kohei's birthday, so I deceided to dedicate this post to him and his art.

If you want to know more about Kohei Nawa, please visit his website here:

Mickey '50 Cafe

 

I don't collect dolls, they scare me a bit. When Barbie looks at me with her perfect smile and her anti-gravity boobs I feel unconfortable, I feel more safe keeping her in a box. But I have an insane passion for doll's miniatures. I buy a lot of miniatures sets to use in my creations, but also to play with!

In this picture you see two sets of the serie "Mickey Mouse '50 cafe", even if I'm a not a big fan of Mickey Mouse, these were irresistible!!!!Isn't the Mickey shaped burger too cute?
