Wes watches and smiles as show patrons marvel at the detail in our miniature paintings.
"Small Art with a Big Punch Walking around the Tidewater Gallery, one is struck by the size and scope of Wes and Rachelle Siegrist's work: it's tiny. The paintings can be as small as 1¼ inch in diameter. But what they lack in size is made up for in substance. The detail of a dog's solemn eyes, foilage on a fall tree, the color of a mountain scene is all there in all its glory. The Siegrists provide a magnifying glass just to prove it. One doesn't need a magnifying glass to appreciate the immense talent in Wes and Rachelle's paintings..." ~ Attraction Magazine, November 2008 highlighting the 38th Annual Waterfowl Festival
The Siegrists' miniature paintings displayed alongside the wood Carvings of Cindy Lewis & Mark Holland. Both couples were the Featured Artists at the 13th Annual Plantation Wildlife Arts Festival in Thomasville, GA.
