Sneak peek at the miniatures I’ve been painting for bug fest at the North Carolina Museum of natural sciences! I just finished painting 28 of these little paintings.

A display of a bunch of miniature insect paintings in gold frames with tiny mushroom sculpted onto them sitting on little green shelves.

They’re beautiful - what are the objects on the frame that look kind of lavender colored?

I make it out of clay and then paint it with acrylics and seal it
