The Brazilian sculptor, Junior, was born into a very big artistic family. It was there where creativity was encouraged and developed from an early age. His earliest memories were of being exposed to his father's paper printing business, where his creativity came alive making drawings, creating origami, pinwheels, and other playful items. Conventional plastic toys were usually tossed aside for toys that he could create with his own hands!
When asked where he gets his inspiration from, he says, "I consider myself a very lucky person for having so many talented people around me all the time. Whether it's the very creative people in my own family, my friends, or colleagues I've worked with in the architecturing and industrial designing fields. I can't help but be inspired by the wonderful people I've had in my life!"
Junior has such a passion for creating new artwork with his hands, that he always finds time to create new artwork in his spare time. It's from that passion where he began to sculpt miniature babies in polymer clay. Those of us who know him, knew that he would be very successful at it! He has been sculpting miniature babies since April of 2006 and has loved the whole new world of creativity it has opened up for him. He's also been blessed to have met so many new, wonderful people. Junior is particularly excited about his newest creation, a "Limited Edition" miniature baby "Kristia" produced in resin. He looks forward to creating more and more life-like miniature babies as well as all the new wonderful friends he'll meet along the way. When recently asked how long will he continue to create new and wonderful artwork, he just simply replied, "As long as it continues to make people happy,...I plan to keep doing it forever!!!"
