Quotes About Miniature Art

"The realm of miniature art and the artists who create them has all the criteria of other 'normal' art forms: line, composition, color and balance; but there is the additional consideration of being able to handle it all in a format that covers just a few square inches." Bill Renc 1999 MASF Exhibition Judge commenting on awarded works.
