Having lost my brother to cancer – I can relate to the agony of discovering you have the disease. Though not always fatal and great advances are being made, this am finding this poster titled the Memories Project, echoes deeply.
The stubborn (and beautifully shaped) killing cell is a reminder of how fragile we are. I have researched the ‘silicates’ which is the molecule responsible for my little ‘bro cancer. It turned out to be quite beautiful too – but deadly.
In memory of RIP Jack Layton who passed two days ago and who wrote in his final letter:
My friends, love is better than anger.
Hope is better than fear.
Optimism is better than despair.
So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic.
And we’ll change the world.

I got miniature little people on my mind today because I just ordered a bunch of them for our upcoming wedding party.
Liliput scenes will appear around our studio as well as incorporated in the jewel boxing design which will contain our video invite – voted to be done in a single take – so expect bloopers – and a few pre-demo songs as a gift to our guests.

If you wish to attempt one yourself, Preiser HO figures are the best and you can find a huge collection here.
