Much to my surprise "Late Summers Gold" was awarded "Best of Show" at the Miniatures in Mariposa show in California. It’s such a honor!

Thanks so much to the Northern California Society of Art in Miniatures and the Sierra Artists Gallery for hosting this superb show!

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.

Travels into the West………

One of the nice things about traveling with your art for shows/events is that often there are some amazing places nearby. A recent trip to Estes Park, CO for the Arts for the Parks exhibit and tour was a great opportunity for a photo shoot!

Poinsettia Sketch by Bonnie Latham - Sketch of a Poinsettia plant in Bonnie Latham's Studo

This poinsettia is next to me every day as I paint. What a wonderful subject to sketch with the dimension and flow of the leaves! emoticon
