Miniature WORLDS is an ongoing project. (updated February 16, 2004)

"Roommate Hunting in San Francisco" is an early piece in the series. In this installation my friend Jim stands happily in one apartment. Next door, the plastic people are interviewing Batman. The one thing they have in common is that they are all made of plastic. The woman seems okay with the idea, but the man appears to be backed into the wall. Batman is, after all, a rather tall and imposing figure. An alternate caption from a Reader There are other possible titles and readings to this story. If you have an idea, please email and I will add it to the site to share with other readers. PatPreble@aol.com

• Tribute to Miss Jean Anderson
• Winter 2002 How it all began. A long story with the first pictures of the development of the project.
• Winter 2002, cont. "A Dog's Dream" is at the bottom of this page.
• Room installations and wall murals.
• Winter 2003 - There weren't too many developments this winter. I spent a lot of time in the park working on pastels in the winter light. I am, however, working on a new piece with Madeline, Batman, The Hawkman, a miniature Barbie and a midget Ninja. They're cooking up a diamond heist in Madeline's kitchen. I have all of the parts but have to create the actual walls and flooring of the kitchen. I also have a surrealistic beach scene that needs to be documented. Stay tuned. I would expect by August to have gotten something up for your enjoyment. Oh, yes, and Hope and Rosie are going to be joining in on the fun soon too. Rosie has a large collection of Barbie paraphanalia and we will see what we can do with that.
• Winter 2004 - Slowly. An interesting development with taking down the walls of the room and beginning to think of expanding possibilities.
• Portrait Dioramas: Madelines's response.
