How appropriate these works are for the art I am currently focused on... top image belongs to illustrator Helen Gibbins  and the swing tags are from artist/illustrator Lisa Congdon on her collectionaday blog - a daily documentation of her collections project. Like others, I do similiar things at home placing my finds in miniature arrangements - the play giving great joy and the excuse for more items is: "it's all in the name of my art". (apologies to the original linker for the above blogs - failings due to a fuzzy memory)
