About this artist

 Finding inspiration for her art from such diverse environments as the deserts of the South West to the shores of Hawaii. Her paintings cover a broad spectrum of subjects and she is known for her floral as well as her detailed wildlife art and has become equally successful in the abstract, more subjective areas.

Millie earned a BA and Master of Arts at MIU, Iowa.

 I start each painting with an idea and then it becomes an exploration between myself and the development of space on the canvas.

Sometimes I’ll use the same structure, then I add or subtract elements.  I like working on more than one painting at a time because it becomes a conversation, the paintings and I all communicate on some level. Repeating the process in more pieces allows me to extend myself, and answer questions that arise, like what if, or does it convey emotion, and is wether there visual excitement. 

This process of interaction and repetition is fed by being aware of things around me in my environment, and by other artists works and conversations.   I use some of them in paintings to  create atmosphere and moods.
