Originally hailing from Waterford in Ireland but currently working in Toronto, Canada, Gary recreates scenes in miniature, many of them with a building theme, giving a giant and humorous perspective on everyday life, whether that’s excavating an avocado with a mini digger or using tiny pots of red paint for a manicure.

Gary is quickly becoming an internet sensation as his work has since been featured on the BBC’s Get Creative website.

“I always had a small interest but when I saw the never ending works of art here it inspired me to try new things,” he told the site.

“I work in construction as a heavy equipment operator and photography is my escape.

“Actually creating the scene is pretty straight forward but some can be a little tedious at times. Working in construction gives me ways to incorporate them into everyday tasks. Some patience and a steady hand works a treat. I often use some Blue Tac to help set them in place before capturing them on film.

“There are so many talented people out there always bringing new ideas to the table and I owe these artists for giving me the inspiration to create my scenes.

“It’s still very much just a hobby. I get inspiration for my miniature scenes from the internet mainly. It’s a great tool to learn and even teach other new skills and techniques.”
