Details:

Wes and Rachelle Siegrist are an American husband and wife team who mesmerize viewers with miniature paintings so exquisitely crafted that they are often mistaken for tiny photographs. Their tiny treasures, as collectors often refer to them, typically measure less than 9 square inches and appear even more detailed when viewed under magnification! A hallmark of their work is their ability to convey the feeling of a larger canvas or the essence of the natural world in miniature. Featuring fifty signature paintings including landscapes, portraits, still lifes, wildlife, and other subjects by Wes and Rachelle Siegrist, Exquisite Miniatures reveals the artists’ vision of the world in remarkable detail. Additional works from the museum’s collection illustrate the history of miniature painting and a hands-on drawing station lets visitors create their own small wonders
