Update to This week at Brush-Paper-Water...

My sincerest apologies to Tracy Hall, one of my featured artists on the showcase this past year, for inadvertently leaving her out of the slide review. Fortunately, she caught the omission and gently pointed it out to me. She's included now, so new viewers will see the whole show -- 29 wonderful artists!!

This week at Brush-Paper-Water...

I can't remember how I came across Tracy Hall's incredible work, but I clearly recall being astonished to realize that her miniatures are often smaller than a standard American business card. Tracy is a very versatile artist -- she paints subjects ranging from florals that are as detailed as botanical illustrations to pet portraits and wildlife scenes, and her illustration work for greeting cards and jigsaw puzzles is packed with charm and filled with delightful details. But it is in painting miniatures that Tracy feels most at home. She has made a stunningly good show in the miniature world, capturing the coveted Gold Memorial Bowl at the Royal Miniature Society show just a year after beginning work in this demanding format.

Please pop over to Brush-Paper-Water to see more of her work.
