This is where I'll discuss all things art. This can be paintings, crafts, and artsy things....discussions...like the art of food. All good things foodies love... I believe presentation is everything when it comes to good food.
So get ready.....I'll discuss a little bit of everything
Enjoy!

Allium & Goldfinch - Day 2 Work in Progress
I painted more of this today. Painted the Goldfinch and finished the flowers. I painted something similar a few years ago, but on a cement patio stone. This is slightly bigger.
I still have to add some shadowing and paint the edge of the painting black. I also have to remember to erase all the pencil lines and sign.
Southie, I just love your work! These finches are lovely! It was a really chilly day here today...I think I need to paint some spring scenes to feel warm, like you are doing! DEB a.k.a. Artshtick
Welcome to my blog. I am a miniaturist. I love to work small. Mostly under 8 inches down to 1 inch. A lot of my paintings are for doll house collectors. Some people dismiss miniature paintings as not quite art. The proverbial “big is better”. That is so ‘70’s. The whole “you must paint loose and big“, that’s not for me. . I love working with fine point brushes and paint very very small. To tell you the truth, I didn’t want other artists to see my little paintings at first, because they were small and some how insignificant. Since I have joined the small format movement so thoroughly and met so many talented artists I have fully embraced miniature paintings as a legitimate form of art. I am a Miniaturist and am proud of it. You can find most of my paintings for sale on Ebay under Southshoreartist. Thank you for popping in and please feel free to browse.
