Paintings by Goddess Gruia that fit the palm of your hand

Miniature paintings feel like a separate art category, as there is something magic about small-size formats that squeeze reality onto sub-nature-size artistic surfaces. My Etsy shop, Goddess Gruia, includes several such works, acrylic on cardboard paintings inspired by architectural elements from Transylvania and Slovakia. These paintings are shipped unframed, rendering transportation fast and affordable, but one can adapt them to various display areas. My favorite method is to combine a generous passepartout and a simple frame, but there are other options as well, such as combining several small works inside a single passepartout and frame and thus creating a larger final artwork or using lavish, ornate, wide frames, without passepartout for each individual work, fitting narrower walls or corner areas of your home.

Bratislava - miniature city scape by Goddess Gruia

Goddess Gruia is Transylvanian, but she appreciated central Europe to a comparable degree. Slovakia is one of the places most resembling her home and Bratislava provides, unsurprisingly, a very familiar and welcoming scenery. One of the several artworks inspired by these parts has just been added on Etsy, in the Goddess Gruia shop: Bratislava scene.
