I Started Drawing Miniature Paintings Because I Did Not Have Time For Bigger Drawings And Now It’s My Passion
Hi, there! My name is Julia. I'm 31. I am an artist from Ukraine.
I started to make miniature watercolor drawings about three years ago when I worked at the office all day and didn't have enough time to create anything bigger. I grew fond of this drawing technique - putting a number of details into tiny intricate drawings.
Now miniature paintings are my passion. All of my tiny paintings are not bigger than 3 cm in length, and every time I create something new is a real challenge for me. When I paint, I feel like a jeweler who is cutting a diamond, having no right to make a mistake. I paint with bated breath.
I am thankful to my customers from all over the world for their support, confidence, and warm words they write to me when they receive my watercolor art. It is a pleasure for me to know that my drawing ideas are a tiny treasure bringing joy to people somewhere overseas.
Below are some of my works. I hope you'll like them! Thank you!

This reminds me of the hidden Astronaut in the book 'everything, everything' by Nicola Yoon

What amazing artwork! I draw bigger stuff to exacting standards...not sure I would manage such intricate work so small scale - truly breathtaking!!!
These are incredible! The details are amazing and everything looks so lifelike! Fantastic job!
These are spectacular! I hope I could reach a level close to this someday!
You are an amazing artist, you capture expression and movement in these! I also love that you include your paper showing color strokes for each image
They look so 3-dimensional! It's as if you can pick up each and every one! How can we buy one (or more...)??

Your talent is amazing! I wish you lots of success in doing what you obviously love!
I have a question, do you have to use a magnifying glass to get all the details?
Yes, sometimes I use it. But very rarely, because when I use magnifying glass, I lose control of my brush. I don't understand the distance between the brush and paper)) And the process getting harder.

Hats off. Absolutely hats off to this amount of detail in such a small space.
