ABOUT THIS PIECE This is a fun little painting.  A leaping sheep with something to say.  I spend my days surrounded by animals.  Three dogs and two cats.  And sometimes it amazes me to think how closely bonded we all are and yet none of them will ever speak a single word to me.  But I understand them just fine.  All this sheep has to say is baa baa.  But you know exactly what she means, don't you?

ABOUT THIS SERIES:  I bought a set of three tiny paintings about 10 years ago and I have been passionate about tiny art ever since. I love the intimacy of holding a work of art in the palm of my hand. I love how tiny art draws you in, begging to be studied. Whispering its story quietly to one viewer at a time. There is just something magical about tiny art.

Beginning in Summer 2004, I am creating a series of 1,000 unique miniature paintings, drawings, and sculptures. Each piece in the series will be numbered, signed and dated.

The subject matter of these new pieces will run the gamut, but I do expect to see all of my common themes appearing in miniature. Hopefully, I will discover some new directions as well. The only parameters that I have set are maximum dimensions of 3.5” square. 

THE PROCESS:  Each of these pieces is a unique, hand-made, original work of art. As with my traditional work, I pay very close attention to composition, color use, line quality and lighting. I have not compromised my commitment to quality in any way. I have simply traded my usual brushes and tools for really teeny ones and I am using some magnifying aids to keep me from going blind.

DISPLAY OPTIONS:  This painting looks wonderful shown alone or in a grouping of similar pieces.

You might want to frame your new artwork to protect your investment. One affordable way to frame these unique pieces would be to purchase standard-sized frames at your local home store and then bring the frames and the artwork together to a custom-framer. Ask the framer to mat the art to fit the frame. These pieces would look lovely with a neutral mat and a low-profile frame.

This painting also looks nice on a small display stand.

This artwork will arrive protected with waxed paper and sandwiched between sheets of sturdy cardboard.
YOUR NEW ARTWORK WILL BE SHIPPED FOR FREE via USPS First Class Mail within five business days of the time your payment clears.

  

Baa baa.
