Unfortunately, I don&#8217;t remember the country or name. There was another thing that attracted me &#8211; somebody on one Russian site posted the link to this artist&#8217;s works. It was obvious that the work was fantastic, lots of great details, colors combination &#8211; everything was perfect. There were a lot of comments, most of them were great, but some people were saying that &#8220;the pieces were wonderful but there was no soul in them&#8221;. I felt very sad for this artist, somehow I see such comments only on Russian sites. I can understand if somebody says &#8220;it&#8217;s great but it&#8217;s not really my thing&#8221; (because it&#8217;s very subjective) but saying &#8220;it doesn&#8217;t have soul&#8221; &#8211; I think is wrong. I&#8217;d never ride a car &#8220;with soul in it&#8221;.\u00a0 What does this artist do to make his creation soulless? I just don&#8217;t get it.<\/p>\n<p>The same happens with the term &#8220;handmade&#8221; (speaking only about Russia here). &#8220;I create it with my own hands!&#8221;, again, I&#8217;m puzzled &#8211; how you should work to call your product &#8220;handmade&#8221;. If you&#8217;re into felting, for example, and using sander for it (Bosch or anything similar), should you call it fully handmade? If you&#8217;re a doll artist and make porcelain dolls, do you have the right to call it handmade (you&#8217;re still using kiln, right?). Course you can! I&#8217;m not a specialist in doll, and I don&#8217;t really care\u00a0 if you make it all by hands or using tools, if you&#8217;re putting all your soul into it or taking it out before work. I just need a good doll.<\/p>\n<p>Long story short, I wanted to share this wonderful site with you, fantastic flawless miniature architecture, the author &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artmajeur.com\/?go=artworks\/display_list_galleries&amp;login=miniarquitect\" target=\"_blank\">Francisco del Pozo Par\u00e9s<\/a>.
