I am at the Minnesota Safari Club International State Convention, North of the Twin Cities.  Tonight was the opening VIP reception — tomorrow will be open to the public all day. :D  Thanks to everyone who dropped by our exhibit this evening!

Tomorrow will be pretty busy for me :D — I will be painting a watercolor from start to finish tomorrow during the event.  The final painting will then be auctioned in the live auction in the evening. Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist

Fox Kit Miniature Watercolor Painting

Rebecca Latham's new miniature watercolor painting of a red fox kit. ~~~ This is how my little fox painting came out - I have only a few minor adjustments to make before it's complete.

Miniature Art Society Exhibit in California

on
I just sent artwork off to California today for a miniature show. The exhibit is just outside of Yosemite National Park in Mariposa, California - the Northern California Society of Arts in Miniature's "Miniatures in Mariposa" at the Sierra Artists Gallery. The show will be up from late of February to early April. :D I wish I could ship myself off to Yosemite too. ;)

Little Fawn Painting in Progress

on
Rebecca Latham's miniature fawn watercolor painting in progress.

Here is a photo of the fawn miniature that I am working on right now (see the original pencil sketch in this post).  A collector from Germany was interested in seeing how the painting was coming along, so here it is. :)   This is a close-up photo of the painting – just the fawn.

I will be painting in some grasses and such around the legs and lower areas.  I will be adding a faint suggestive background to the painting also. Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist

Miniature Wildflowers – Traditional Miniature

on

This is a little miniature painting that I have been working on (on and off) for a while.  I just love wildflowers – these are a cluster from here in Minnesota.  I have a little more to do on it, but the photo of the painting should give you an idea of the mood and concept of the miniature.

I thought a miniature format for the painting would be perfect for a little splash of color.  It is very tiny — as you can see by the photo of the painting.  :)  The artwork is 1in x 1/2in.  Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist

Snowy Owl Sketch

on

 Rebecca Latham's new Snowy Owl miniature painting. Sketch for the watercolor. This is a new little painting that I'm starting. It is a female snowy owl, so she has some nice black barring and pattern. She also had a little bit of an attitude when I was able to study and photograph her ;) , which I think will look nice in the painting. :D

Landscape in Miniature – Progress

on

Rebecca Latham's miniature landsacpe painting work-in-progress. ~~ This is a recent image of my miniature landscape painting that I am working on. It still has some more details and textures to be added to it, but the in-progress picture should give you an idea of how the miniature landscape is coming out.
