Oh baby, I’ve got you in the palm of my hand! Canadian artist creates miniature lifelike infants with the most adorable features.
A gifted Canadian artist created the most lovely models of newborns for these pieces.

Camille Allen, 35, British Columbia, makes each of the delicate babies by hand, having learned the skill from her grand-mother-in-law. However, unlike Camille’s, the original baby sculptures were life size.

After trying her hand at infant sculpture, Camille realized she needed a challenge and started working on the miniature versions because she didn’t have enough clay for a larger model.
.
While she makes the babies to order for customers, Camille admitted that she becomes very attached to each sculpture that she makes and often feels the separation at the end of the process.

Camille said: “When I held the first tiny baby sculpture in my hand I fell in love with it. I have been making the miniature babies ever since.
