Miniaturist & Theatrical Designer

Darryl Audette is a Miniaturist, and Theatrical Designer living and working in Winnipeg, Canada.

I think that if you don’t come away with a feeling that you experienced something, then the scene didn’t work out.

I consider myself a visualizer and designer. The labor involved is secondary.

I believe with all my heart and soul, that through the medium of miniature, just as with the media of painting and photography, one can express emotions and communicate with the viewer.
