Phil Juska creates spectacularly detailed miniature models of diners, beach houses, boats, and even miniature miniature golf courses. This one time art school dean and Pennsylvania Ballet executive has 14 of his models on display at the Ocean City Arts Center through the end of July 2016. He loves realist painting, narratives, and above all family. In combining these, he pulls off a neat trick. By reproducing in exacting detail the places of our lives, Phil Juska reaches our deepest selves through memory.
