The paintings in this collection were created using soft pastel sticks and pencils on acid-free paper. They retain the original texture since miniature pastels do not need to be fixed. Almost all of the originals measure 4 by 5 inches or smaller. Several in this collection have won awards at exhibitions of miniature paintings. Most of the works are available for purchase as-is or framed.
