]]>Chung is a jewelry designer from New York, who embarked on quite an artistic journey before finding success with her brand Gracing You with Art. She enjoyed traditional oil painting in her teens but decided to pursue 3D animation in college because she saw it as a more reliable career path before going back to her true passion.
Her love for painting never faded away, and she decided to dive back into this world after being laid off from her old job. She started working with polymer clay and mastered jewelry design as she went along before starting her own brand and attracting over 60,000 followers to her Instagram page.
(@gracingyouwithart)Chung’s jewelry pieces are tiny works of art that feature whole worlds inside them, from soaring mountain tops to mesmerizing landscapes, inviting you to step right in. The 17th and 18th-century art is a huge source of inspiration for this young artist, so you’ll notice many elements of Victorian, Baroque, and Renaissance art in her work.

]]>Made in 1:12, 1:6, and 1:3 scale, Michaux’s sweets are PVC based clay models made from polymer clay from Germany, the US, and Japan. She also uses professional modeling accessories made in the US, Japan, and Europe. For more bulky models, in 1:3 scale, Michaux’s uses air dry clay from Padico (Japan), while resin and gelatin models are made from a water simulator (from the UK) or a special resin from Padico.
“I had always wanted to own a sweet shop since I was a little girl,” writes Michaux on her website. “I was always fascinated by the colors in a sweet shop and I also have quite a sweet tooth.” Launched in 2012, her Littlest Sweet Shop was created to fulfill her fantasy in miniature form.
“I wanted to have something that would stand out in the sea of other talented miniature artists so I made a sweet shop diorama to display my work and brought it to life,” explained Michaux in a blog post. “I was always obsessed with candy, even if my earliest memory of a sweet shop was just a pick’n mix at the mall. I had dreams about opening my own sweet shop and that dream came true!”
These days her project includes a sweet shop diorama, whose photos Michaux shares online, alongside an Etsy shop that offers her tiny, realistic, creations for sale at a reasonable price. According to Michaux, you can use her items as props for claymation/stop-motion animation projects or in your diorama. However, she notes, her miniature models are strictly for adult collectors and should not be given to children aged 12 or below for fear they might swallow them.
