Wouldn’t it be nice to have a Miniature Painting’s forum?

Jillian-
Now that is something possitive about going into the hospital!!! My surgery is supposed to be day surgery but they changed at the last moment the last time. So—–maybe it will be a few days. Mine is on my left foot.

Thanks for the post. Nice to have friends.

Yes, that’s for sure. I was really pleased with the works I did. I sold several of them on ebay. My surgery nearly got changed, too. Take some work with you to do! It certainly saved me from insanity. (I think!)

Jillian

BTW, this is one I’ve done tonight. Watercolor. 2.5 x 2″ It’s in the wc forum gallery.

OK. This is Paul’s site Jaef.
http://www.pawleewurx.com/
click on ‘mini art’ – he has photos of the work with a needle next to them.
Really small. And in coloured pencil.

I took a bit more time with this last watercolour, by the way.
It warranted it. I was fairly sure it would come out well.
And I am well pleased. I could have also spent more time and effort with it, but wasn’t willing to. I don’t think I will until prices go up or I enter a competition. I don’t consider this of competition ‘standard’.

Jillian-
When I go to the hospital, I will bring just pencil and paper. More simple that way. Here is a big piece in just three pencils. 2h, 4b and 8b. Hope the pic shows up. It might be too large.

As to Pauls work, Great work and a very busy web!!! Lots of work.

This is Sunday and after services, I am busy painting. Waterbased oil. When I get the chance (as I said, I will post the piece. miniature)

Have a great week!!

Yoyita,
I think that you will get more attention over in one of the subject and medium specific forums. I suggest that you start a poll, and that will give you a count of how many are interested. I do know that there are [B] several miniature [U]artists[/U][/B] on the site:)

I know more than a couple under 5′ 2″….

Wow. What great posts since I last looked.

Jillian, Asterea, Lorijo, Minibrush and Jaef your paintings are all wonderful and inspiring.

Jet, lol – but seriously, don’t digital artists produce miniature paintings sometimes? How about encouraging those that do to vote in favour of a miniature forum?

Cheers,

Geoff

So, Jet, is the criteria 5’2″ or under? If so, that would make me a
miniature miniature artist. :rolleyes:

numbat, thanks again.

and to all the new paintings posted…aren’t they wonderful! I just love seeing everyone’s work.

jaef, good luck to you on your surgery. I hope you’re not off your feet too long. My better half just got his cast off. Oh, and I got a couple more pics of the Smithsonian show. My sis in-law came for a visit from DC and she took the exhibit in. I’ll email them to you tomorrow.

I admire those of you who can work on their art after surgeries. I found I could barely remember my name, couldn’t even concentrate on the TV. :confused:

Take care all, and happy painting!

Minibrush

minibrush-
I can hardly wait to see the pics!!
Thanks!

Going flyfishing Friday. Near Mt. Hood. The lake you see here is near to the lake that I will go to. Have been fishing all around the Mountain this year. Going to start painting miniatures.

Surgery is the 6th of August so I better enjoy it while I can.
