Traditional Miniature Paintings
(All artwork and photographs on this blog and my website are copyrighted- please refrain from copying without permission. Thank you.)
A traditional miniature painting is defined by both size and technic. A true miniature is 25 square inches or less, and is highly detailed, able to withstand magnification and still look good, and generally the subject should be 1/6th scale or smaller. The origins of miniatures are ancient- originally illuminations in handwritten/made books, and later the beautiful miniature portraits that were carried and cherished by people before there was photography. True miniatures are tiny jewels of the artworld.

Carol - this is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! A real gem of a miniature, and I love it - well done!!!!
And you are so GOOD at them Carol! :)
Well, thank you both very, very much. :-) The animals come so easily for me, I have to work at the landscapes, but I think I'm learning!
Carol, this is beautiful, it just amazes me every time I see art this well done in such a small scale. WOW!
Thanks so much Krista. Glad you like it. :-)
I'm sorry, I can't read Chinese? I'm hoping it's saying you enjoy my artwork and not something bad!
Beautiful panorama. I think if I have your talent I will paint all my walls with panoramas.
