ABOUT ME:
I have come into the world of art rather late in life. After years of "doodling", in 2004 I began framing, and then selling those doodles. Encouraged by my initial success, I have begun committing more time to drawing,and painting, in a variety of styles and media. While I am almost entirely self taught, I have been indelibly influenced by the art of my grandfather Barse Miller, the internationally reknowned watercolorist, and his mother, my great-grandmother, Susan Barse Miller. Currently, I am partnering with my husband (a pastor) in ministry, teaching Bible studies, and painting in the free moments I have.
I hope you enjoy viewing my work. I am showing this year in multiple shows throughout Alabama and the Southeast. My work is always available for purchase in my home studio, or the galleries or shops listed below. I will try to keep current work photographed and available for perusal on line! Email me or give me a call!
