Oil on wood
80” x 36”
Welcome, my name is Colleen Miller. As an artist, I am captivated and enlivened by paintings. I retired from working in mental health and had an urge to be creative with my time. I have started many paintings; my husband calls me the unfinished artist. I am ok with that because I can only finish the art that speaks to me. We have two adult children who have wonderful families, and we are blessed with 4 beautiful granddaughters.
Artist’s Statement
Sunsets invite me to come into the present, the now. I can’t resist. It opens me to a moment when I awake to the presence of God. I breathe deeply, the air fills my lungs and slowly I let go. The wisps of disappearing clouds invite me to diminish my current concerns and worries. I open the door, peace and comfort come in, and I am home.
