How my Miniature Series came about ?

 I came across these cute  miniature easels and thought.. mmm   I wonder what a wee tiny miniature painting would look like sitting on one of those miniature easels ?  If I was going to paint it I wanted it to have the same detail as my larger works… but just in miniature form, so I looked around for the right canvas and size and went to work creating a miniature landscape.

This series has proven very popular, and many people have purchased these artworks as gifts for family and friends.  

They are the ideal gift to send overseas as they are so small and light.

So far I have created 23 artworks in this “Slice of Life” series, most of which have sold. 

They come in two sizes Square 100mm x100mm amd  Landscape 130mm x 180mm

Acrylic, Acrylic Mixed Media and Oil

Subject matter has varied from New Zealand Landscapes, Butterflies to NZ Birds.

I am happy to be contacted if you would like to commission me to paint a miniature for you.
