Blake Gore discovered his artistic talent during his late 30s, and decided to fully embrace the saying \u201cgood things come in small packages.\u201d His miniature paintings are as tiny as they come, but that\u2019s not stopping him from creating extraordinary worlds inside his itsy-bitsy frames.\n\n\n\n
Gore spent years working as a mental health therapist, career coach, and university instructor before discovering his passion for art. He was in his late 30s when he stumbled upon a social media challenge to share a 1\u201dx1\u201d sketch every day for a month, and he decided to keep going even after the challenge was over.\n\n\n\n
\u201cOften drawing inside only an inch or two, I\u2019m inspired by the challenge to create more while consuming less. My miniature art demonstrates how constraints can enhance creativity while encouraging a more sustainable experience for the earth, the artist, and art lovers alike,\u201d he told Strathmore Artist Papers.\n\n\n\n
