Description: Painting in miniature is more than just painting a small work. The word “miniature” originally came from a Latin term for the red pigment that was used in the creation of illuminated manuscripts. Because the decoration and illustration of ancient manuscripts was necessarily small, techniques for creating them influenced the later creation of small, extremely detailed artworks outside of manuscripts, and the name “miniature” stuck with these works as well. Miniature painting is typically small, but the dimension never sacrifices the detail of what is being portrayed on a piece. Miniature is all about the precision, detail, quality of brushwork, and smoothness. A miniature is commonly painted on a very smooth surface of paper or camel bone, with a very fine brush often made of squirrel hair and for some very fine pieces with the help of handmade brush of cats hair which has a single hair at the tip. The whole process of providing the instruments and execution of a piece require a great amount of time and attention.
