This Artist Makes Miniature Paintings That Can Fit Into Lockets and Compasses

Khara Ledonne loves everything about painting. She used to paint huge murals on buildings but now focuses on creating tiny paintings.

“Miniatures were an experimental accident. I think it is a combination of both the idea – having something inspiring in a secret, personal place – and the attentive, skilled craft, that make these little things so magnetic,” she wrote on Etsy.

She uses oil enamel and a very small brush to make the detailed tiny worlds from her artistic imagination. All pieces are hand-made, painted from scratch, and no two items are the same. So every drawing is unique and beautiful in its own way.
