Miniatures Artist Amy Lowry | Milkweed

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries Artist Amy Lowry Chicago, Illinois, USA Milkweed Mixed Media   Artist Statement These pieces are from a series called “SNAPS: portraits of Maine.” They are comprised of small oil collages that reference a place or experience of 50 years spent in the landscape of New England. I divide my time between studios in Maine and Chicago, painting representational landscapes and botanicals with oil on canvas. I use disposable palettes, and one day a discarded palette caught my eye. The stains, smears, and colorful brushstrokes evoked a topography that was abstracted yet familiar. I cropped it, modified it, and soonRead More →

Miniatures Artist Christina Preiss | Born In The USA

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries Artist Christina Preiss Valley Center, California, USA Born In The USA Photography   Artist Statement Having had a tumultuous childhood, I gravitated towards miniatures at an early age. Through them I could create a world that I had control over, since I didn’t have control over my own. I enjoy not having to ask people to model for me, my miniatures belong to me and my imagination. This particular piece is about patriotism. Our country is in a very difficult place right now, but we truly have more freedom than most of the countries in this world. Although timesRead More →

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries   Artist Francesco Palombi Brooklyn, New York, USA Untitled Photography   Artist Statement Drawing away from photography as an action of chasing scenes from reality, I’m approaching this medium with the idea of complete creation. After discovering the darkroom, I began to feel extremely sensitive to black and white images, realizing the great power of inner communication they embody. I’m interested in the human internal condition and in his mind activity. To express myself, I often create sculptures and drawings, combining them in black and white images as final products.

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries Artist Jeffrey Luque Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Petite Beauty Oil Painting   Artist Statement Luque is a self taught artist from Jacksonville Beach, Florida. He started painting when he was 23 by going to a craft store and buying a 24″x36″ canvas, brushes, and a couple of paints.”I am a non traditionalist using a hatchet to cut though art. My expression is painting and I am constantly developing my skill, experimenting with colors, and teaching myself to better express my artistic language.” Luque states, “Each painting is both a learning experience and is also defining my body of work.Read More →

Miniatures Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Joni Pakes Newport Coast, California, USA Metamorphism Mixed Media   Artist Statement My pieces are collections that invite the viewer to live in another world for a while, focusing on the detail of the objects and their relationship to each other. I assemble repurposed boxes forming grids, matrixes that hold organic-like specimens, relics, treasures. The hard edged boxes justaposed with the nature-inspired forms create a contrasting harmony. Butterflies bring beauty and joy and they also bring change. The butterfly teaches that growth and change can occur as gently and joyfully as one wishes. The views expressed by ourRead More →

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries       Artist Marisa Laguardia Poland, Ohio, USA Situated Above, I saw you There Oil Painting     Artist Statement As soon as an object is taken out of its original context, the purpose and identity of that object changes. While studying in Florence, Italy, I had the opportunity to express this thought in my work. Adjacent to the ancient, decorated architecture lie practical, rigid, overlooked forms like vents, grates, sewer coverings, blinds, and railings. Many of these structures have a mysterious aura: they contain voids that are contrasted by stark, overlying lines. I am interested in theRead More →

Miniatures Artist Marisa Laguardia | Overlap

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries Artist Marisa Laguardia Poland, Ohio, USA Overlap Mixed Media Artist Statement In a search for understanding my inclination towards certain objects and surfaces, I experimented with hog gut to not only transform the material, but use it as a means of expressing my idea of beauty. This gut is atypical painting medium, and it has an allure of curious repulsion. It is lain over thick paint with pleasing colors which allows the two unlike things to interact. The gut is packed and preserved in salt, which is still present on the surface of the piece. These form crystalline patterns,Read More →

Miniatures Artist Ahavani Mullen | Untitled 4

Miniatures Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Ahavani Mullen Chicago, Illinois, USA Untitled 4 Mixed Media Artist Statement My work participates in the interplay between the seen and the unseen. Navigating the hidden and the revealed, it explores how the earth plane and the higher, inner worlds blend with each other and complete each other. My process involves engaging in the work as a spiritual practice, drawing on inner experiences and meditations to capture that which grows in mental silence, and uncover an image which existed previously only in the inner worlds. Because encaustic paint is built up layer upon layer, it is particularly wellRead More →

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries   Artist John Gialanella Flagstaff, Arizona, USA Two of Hearts Mixed Media     Artist Statement Ephemeral images are collected, deconstructed and reassembled, in order to remove the subject from its original context in order to construct a new narrative. Disparate images from the past elicit a certain nostalgic response, a disconnected familiarity for the viewer. The uncertain, yet seemingly common, is meant to draw the onlooker into the work, until the subjects themselves, in their new orientation, begin to dictate a prevailing story.     The views expressed by our artists in their artist statements do not necessarilyRead More →

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries     Artist Michael Petrovitch San Gabriel, California, USA Arrival Mixed Media   Artist Statement Life. Filled with color and energy, life is always in motion. Our lives are the products of a series of choices we make. In my paintings I strive to capture life. Choices made in the past cannot be undone, and so I incorporate this idea into my pieces. When I begin a piece I continue to make choices on paint application and composition until the work is finished. Any mistakes made along the way are not remedied, but rather they are accepted as IRead More →

Miniatures Call for Artists Accepted Entries Artist Leica Clayton Spring, Texas, USA Circles Learning From Experience Water Color   Artist Statement Circles have always had spiritual connotations. They communicate the idea of eternity and of perfection. This piece is symbolic of the seemingly endless journey we all take through this mortal experience, and our attempt to become as good and as perfect as we can be building continually on what we learned from living.

Miniatures Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Kathryn Hunkele Phoenix, Arizona, USA If you only looked… Photography   Artist Statement I set out to do a series on what it’s like to feel small and inconsequential in a big city. As my work tends to fall towards the ridiculous, a serious project became a little more absurd. While the images created are clearly fictive, I feel as though the subjects still have the power to appeal to the empathetic nature of the audience. The ability to manipulate how the world is seen is one of my favorite characteristics of photography. To be able to shiftRead More →

We seek peaceful retreat on lofty and wind-swept mountains, or in dripping and thickly forested valleys. We sail on the wind and on the water; we float below the surface of the waves. We swelter in the thermal expanse of the desert; we huddle and shiver on vast white-capped plains.

Using it to represent our mental capacities and the extent of our civility in terms of it’s use in complex language and expression of thought. Yet, also depicting this iconic feature as a devouring animalistic  organ with implied sensuality.

I enjoy seeing life in a humorous way and being playful with my work. However, some of my beliefs and passions are naturally revealed through my images. As my boyfriend grows older, he seems to have an increasing number of nose hairs that make unexpected appearances. I thought that it would be funny if there was a little man whose only job was to maintain the hairs. The views expressed by ourRead More →

Miniatures Call for Entries Accepted Artists     Artist Christina Preiss Valley Center, California, USA Just Working In The Greenhouse Photography Artist Statement A primary aim of my miniature photography is to have the viewer stop and engage in the present moment. The present moment is really all we have, but people are often lost in past memories or future anxieties. However, seeing tiny people actively participating in our “super-sized” world, makes the viewer take a second look. The image plays with their perception. This image portrays people working in our greenhouse. I am so lucky to have a boyfriend whose “man cave” is aRead More →
