A series of strange miniature portraits

I love creating small art. I suppose you could say it's kind of a comfort zone for me. Large canvases are...intimidating. A blank canvas on its own is scary enough, knowing that you have to actually fill up this terrifying white space with stuff from your own head, but if it's too large, the feelings are even worse. 

​So that's why, I've been creating very small pieces of art lately!

"A Portrait of Young Charlotte von Battingham," acrylic. Sold 

Another thing I've been doing is scouring eBay and Etsy looking for small, brass vintage frames, and repurposing them for my own work. I've built up a sizable collection already, and I can't wait to fill them all with my weird little paintings! 

"The Headless Baroness," acrylic. Sold

"Still Life with Meat," acrylic. Sold. This one's super tiny! The painting is only 2" tall!

As mentioned, these all have gone off to their permanent homes, but I will most certainly be making more, so keep an eye out!
