Miniature Painting "Late Summers Gold - Sunflower" by Bonnie Latham

My miniature painting "Late Summers Gold" of a sunflower will be on exhibit at the "Miniatures in Mariposa" miniature show. This is the first miniature show I have entered in a while — so I’m very excited about this exhibit.

The painting is 2-3/4 in. x 2-3/4 in. The exhibit will be held at the Sierra Artists Gallery in Mariposa, California from February 27th to the 1st of April. The exhibition is sponsored by the Northern California Society of Arts in Miniatures and Sierra Artists Gallery.

What's Miniature Painting?

The original meaning of the term miniature refers to technique and not size - it means to paint very detailed. Often it's called painting "in miniature" and it has been stated that a piece of art that is as large as a wall could be painted in miniature. My family and I paint in that style exclusively and have done extensive research as well as talking to quite a few experts about it. Here is a little more in depth information.
