It's that time of year for the Miniature Masterpieces and More! invitational exhibit at *Tsuga Fine Art Gallery in Bothell. This year I have two in the Small Works Category and three in the Miniature Category. *(formally Kaewyn Gallery)

I know that many would consider my two small works above as miniatures. However, as a member of several Miniature Art Societies, I follow the guidelines of these Societies. I consider work that is under 25 inches square, done with attention to detail, with a 1/6 scale and fine rendering to be a miniature work of art. The two above, even if they are under 25" square and done with much detail, are framed larger and just do not fit in the miniature category! If you are curious and wish to read or learn more about miniature art and the miniature art societies, you can do so on the following links.

It is my 7th year participating in this fine invitational show. Each year I am amazed by all the beautiful work in the show. I hope you get a chance to see it. All work is for sale.
