Exquisite Miniatures
Wes and Rachelle Siegrist are an American husband and wife team who mesmerize viewers with miniature paintings so exquisitely crafted that they are often mistaken for tiny photographs. Their tiny treasures, as collectors often refer to them, typically measure less than nine square inches and appear even more detailed when viewed under magnification. A hallmark of their work is their ability to convey the feeling of a larger canvas or the essence of the natural world in miniature. Exquisite Miniatures is on view Nov. 9, 2024 –Jan. 26, 2025.
Featuring 50 signature paintings including landscapes, portraits, still lifes, wildlife, and other subjects by Wes and Rachelle Siegrist, Exquisite Miniatures reveals the artists’ vision of the world in remarkable detail. Additional works from the Museum’s collection illustrate the history of miniature painting and a hands-on drawing station lets visitors create their own small wonders.
Wes and Rachelle Siegrist are members of the Miniature Artists of America, the Miniature Art Society of Florida, the Miniature Painters, Sculptors & Gravers Society of Washington, D.C., the Cider Painters of America, and the Hilliard Society of England. They are the authors of the world’s first standard definition of miniature art adopted by the Association of Miniaturist Artists. It is no small wonder, therefore, that the Siegrist’s have been referred to as “World Ambassadors for Miniature Art.”
