Karl Lilje | Small World | Miniature Paintings | Oil on Canvas

In my spare time I like to paint miniatures. I'm pretty good at forging paintings (ethically, e.g. when the copyright has expired), and enjoy the challenge of finding form with a single hair. The best medium is oil on fine paper... a lovely bright glow with high detail! Here are a few (small) examples...
