aceo fireflies Fairy - a change from the usual
Catching Fireflies 2.5" x 3.5" Acrylic
I am tired of the same old storms, ships, lighting, etc and spring is finally in the air so I decided to paint fireflies. And who better to be an expert at catching them????? Why a fairy child of course :)
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.
