American-Spanish artist couple Walter Martin & Paloma Muñoz
The figures are store bought, but they come in very standard positions so they need to cut them up, reassemble, painted by hand with tiny brushes and articulate them so that they fit into an action.
It took about one month to finish an artwork.

As a fellow snowglobe artisan, I have long been a fan of Martin/Munoz' work.
ReplyDeleteMy snow globes are much more whimsical and light-hearted in comparision, but I love their brooding, social commentary and the juxtaposition of light and dark themes.
