IGMA Artisan
Pottery, furniture and accessories in miniature by artist and artisan, Jo-Ann
Shaw. Some of these items are things I made for myself and are not for sale but that isn't to say that I could not make another if someone wanted one. I do have some other items that are for sale and are pictured here as well.
I have changed my title because as of May 2016, I achieved Artisan status within the International Guild of Miniature Artisans in the field of leather. It is a title I wear with pride.

My First Mini
I started building minis very young. As a child, I would watch my brother build airplanes from balsa wood kits. Somehow, I had the idea of taking the scrap pieces of balsa wood and building this chair in 1/12 scale. You can even see the writing still on the wood. I still have this little piece as a reminder of where I started.

I have a thing for chairs. Don't ask me why. I made these because someone wanted medieval chairs but she didn't buy but that's okay. I think I'll keep 'em.
