Episode Description from the Publisher

What starts as a childhood escape… sometimes becomes the thing that changes everything.In this episode of Tiny Worlds, Big Stories, I talk with Susan Canaday Henry — a miniature artist whose work feels cinematic, emotional, and completely her own.We talk about:– Growing up creative in a practical household– Studying art in New York and trying to “fit” into the art world– The moment a dollhouse in an antique store quite literally changed her life– Why miniatures are about control, escape, and freedom– Her experience on Best in Miniature (and why it was harder than it looked)– The magic of Guild School + the miniature community– And how following what you love — without trying to monetize it — can open unexpected doorsSusan’s work is bold, imaginative, and deeply personal… from a permanent “birthday party” candy house to a glowing, futuristic dream home. This conversation is honest, funny, and full of those moments where you realize: maybe the thing you loved as a kid still knows the way.* * *https://candyconstantly.com/https://www.instagram.com/candyconstantlyBest in Miniature - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy2Eljcx3UU* * *Small By Design Newsletter Sign-up:https://larablairartstudio.myflodesk.com/smallnewsLara's arthttps://www.instagram.com/larablairartstudiohttps://www.instagram.com/tinyworldsbigstorieshttps://www.larablairartstudio.com/
