Incredible Miniature Paintings Of Galaxies, Animals And Books By Lorraine Loots

Lorraine Loots, an expert at creating tiny art “for ants,” is back with a new series of mind-bogglingly small (and beautiful) paintings of animals, space, and her favorite books.

She plans to create 100 mini paintings and drawings throughout 2015, drawing them on themed days of the week – “Microcosm Mondays,” “Tiny Tuesdays,” “Fursdays” and “Free Fridays.”

If you’re a fan of miniature art, you should definitely check out these tiny hand-made books by Evan Lorenzen as well.

The beauty of using watercolor paints lies in their ability to capture a vibrant and ethereal quality that simply cannot be replicated by other mediums. Similarly, Lorraine Loots’ miniature paintings, although small, bring a striking presence and incredible detail to each subject.

If you’re intrigued by such captivating artwork, Tilen Ti’s exquisite use of watercolor to breathe life into animal portraits offers a great parallel in craftsmanship and style.
