Announcing the 25th International Miniature Art Show at Seaside Art Gallery, April 30th Through May 30th, 2016
This Annual Exhibit is 1 of only 20 Recognized Miniature Art Shows in the USA.
Nags Head, NC, April 22, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Seaside Art Gallery opens its heralded ‘Annual International Miniature Art Show’ on Saturday, April 30th, and it runs through Monday May 30th, 2016. This April marks the gallery’s 25th year for this amazing art show.
It is sure to delight.
The popular show features 600 works of art. 200 of the very best miniature artists have entered their art in the show. And they come from 5 continents, 8 countries, and 36 states in the USA.
“The International Miniature Art Show is an exciting time around here at the gallery,” says owner Melanie Smith. “In fact, it’s one of our favorites. More miniatures are arriving daily, and I have to say they are amazing. From paintings...to etchings...to sculptures. There is a diverse palate for every taste.”
Fine Art in Miniature
These miniature gems are in watercolor, graphite, paper, sculpture, oils, pastels, ink, mixed media…just about anything you can imagine.
Artists have worked diligently since the 16th century to create masterpieces in original miniature art. They even use magnifying lenses and close-range binoculars to miniaturize each brush, or pencil stroke.
The results are remarkable.
The fine detail, excellence and visual expression are brilliant. These amazing creations are often referred to as ‘the little jewels of the art world.’
This is an excellent opportunity to own an original piece of art by a renowned artist for an affordable price.
People’s Choice Award
