Miniature hyperrealistic paintings by Dina Brodsky
The techniques used to create Italian Renaissance-era fresco paintings, 15th-century Flemish portraits, illuminated manuscripts, and Islamic miniature art have all played a role in Brodsky’s work. She had a job painting jewelry for Ralph Lauren, which gave her a chance to work with Mylar paint. Mylar is a plastic-based architectural film with almost no grain, which makes it an excellent candidate for detail work. She creates her miniature landscapes and still lifes by painting oil paint over Mylar onto tiny PlexiGlass sheets.
