corrección Claudia Córdoba, My Favorite Artist

My Favorite Artist (my favourite artist)
today (start sentence with uppercase ) I’m going to talk about Slinkachu one of my favorite artist(.)

Slinkachu is a British street artist, photographer and blogger. This artist was born as Stuart Pantoll(.) He says that he always has been interested in small things, when he was young, (eliminate this coma) his dad made for him a train set, but he never was interested in the trains, it was always the figures, houses and trees that fascinated him.
Born in 1979, this artist of 34 years old, uses every day’s objects, (eliminate this coma) and tiny figurines, (eliminate this coma) to create very small street-­-based installations and then photographs (to create small street-based installations to photograph) them: from far away and up-close. He could also be described as a miniaturist; he modifies tiny human figurines from model train sets and places them in real urban situations, capturing them in sight-seeing, camping, grocery shopping, fighting or dying.
He spent the last eight years shooting his miniature tableaux on the streets of London (on London streets). Funny and touching, he put urban life under the microscope. Slinkachu's approach to street art is more subtle, more sensitive. You could easily walk right past one of Slinkachu's installations and not know it's there. His photographs are the key: the close-ups make you feel like a participant, while the far-­-away shots leave you feeling like a spectator. (while distant shots make you feel you are a spectator)

His first solo (solo) exhibition was in august 2008, London, (eliminate this coma) on the Cosh Gallery, but (Nevertheless he) began his series of Little People in 2006, (eliminate this coma) as respite from his day job in publishing. In relation with little things he says: “I didn't expect people to empathize with the characters so much. (“I didn't expect people could to empathize with the characters.) We have an innate pull to look after small things – kids, dogs, hamsters...People project their own feelings on to them.”


Slinkachu has become very famous, now his photographs sell for up to £7000. Well, to fnish , maybe we could say that this works are meant to be published or to be in the without that , Slinkachu couldn't exist as an artist.
