meet the artist

-

Back in the early 20th century his grandfather used to spend his free time modeling statuettes and 'pasturi' in clay. Now, Anthony Said, has discovered his unique talent.

Anthony is showing his skill in modeling in various mediums. Most commonly clay and terracotta. His wish was always that of painting - but on the contrary, he showed his artistic ability in another genre. He declares he has no painting of his own - on the other hand he embarked in modeling and sculptures, which he executes to the minutest details - as this online collection proves.

Today he is introducing some models from his vast collection and in a matter of time this online gallery will comprise the whole collection of Malta's Heritage, including fortifications, old towers, country chapels, old palaces, farmhouses and more. Each particular item is a superbly and meticulously hand crafted and an intricately detailed masterpiece in miniature.

Being online, this collection will surely be appreciated and treasured by all those who have the Maltese heritage at heart.
