New Miniatures

White Flower Miniatures - 5" x 5"
Okay - here's something VERY new for me! Some "quiet" paintings!! Quiet in terms of color, that is. I'm doing a few miniature paintings for the show in Bakersfield, Ca next month. These little paintings are a great way to experiment. This time I'm going for almost a "monochromatic" painting - where the interest is in the texture instead of color. Paint is very thick on these little canvases. I felt like I was sculpting the paint to create the flowers. How fun is this!
Most of my art is done for the show. Mike has it boxed and ready to ship in a couple of weeks. Exciting! Now - tax time . .. .
It's kind of a yucky, rainy day outside, but I'm gonna make it a beautiful day for me. Hope you do the same!!!

Claudia, I LOVE THESE! When and where are you going to be next month?? I want to come see you. Remember, yellow is my favorite color. This is so cool!
