Miniatures
The miniatures all measure 10 by 15 cm (postcard size). Most were done with felt-tip pens (see felt-tip pen works) although a few were done in water colours, Art pen or pencil.
The themes and techniques that appear in the rest of Nel Egberts’ work can all be found here: flower and leaf structures, landscapes, minimalistic lines, geometric forms, labyrinths, spirals and dolmens.
Even more than in the rest of her work, in the miniatures every line, each point matters. One of the artist’s favourite quotes “In der Beschränkung zeigt sich der Meister” (Goethe) can certainly be applied to these miniatures.
