I like Isola by Natasha Bieniek, not just because of the realism – love the drapery – but because of its small size. As someone who prefers to do small works, I feel that tiny works of art are often overlooked and dismissed out of hand. Small works require close study, bringing the viewer closer to the artist’s vision.
