ROSE BACKER MILLER
Drawings... Paintings... Prints...
I see what I see and interpret what I can.
Always looking at objects in the home surroundings from inside and outside.
The landscape tells me what to do
Outside near woods, water and nature inspire
my art where I can be even when I'm
in a enclosed space. Windows either at home or studio allow me to perceive out.
I dabble with self-Portrait drawings using colored pencils and oil pastels. Charcoal, graphite and pastel are the prefer drawing mediums I use on paper.
Majority of my paintings are done in oil paint medium combined with consistency of recipes.
Painted on canvas, linen, and wood panels. In 2014 I tried a figurative acrylic on paper hanging on the studio wall.
Designing, Drawing, Painting and
Printing digitally talks to me easily. My past experience was in traditional and photographic printmaking, (my fine art major... before computers). Because of that learning experience in art school and working in Printing Ateliers I became comfortable with the conversion of the digital tools and software.
The blog will be on a continue journey, as I add more text, artwork (not selfies)...
to be continued
