I thought that I would post a little of my inspiration. :D<\/p>\n

\"Traditional<\/p><\/div>\n

\"TraditionalI do quite a bit of digging around researching earlier miniature art through various different sources.  The art of miniature painting has so many different facets to it and connected to so many cultures.  Seeing so much that has come before me is very inspiring in my own painting.<\/p>\n

These are a few Flemish miniature paintings of nature subjects from around 1600.  They are stunningly intricate and delicate.  I find them absolutely beautiful and so inspiring.  They are painted in watercolors on vellum in much the same way that I paint my work.  <\/p>\n

\"TraditionalI think I find them particularly fascinating because my painting methods originated with my studies a number of years ago with a Flemish artist who also paints nature like this.  He had studied it in his native country.  It is rooted deeply in their culture.  …and continues today.<\/p>\n

Miniature paintings<\/a>, like these, show wildlife art being carefully depicted by artists who also shared a connection with nature 400 years ago. :D<\/div>\n
