ARTIST STATEMENT & BIO

My name is Margaret V. Miller and I am versed in many different medias ranging from digital graphics to 2-D design. I'm anxiously on my way to earn my associates degree in Applied Applied Sciences from Lincoln Land Community College in 2021. I had a vagabond upbringing, moving every couple years until high school. Born in Germany in 1991, then moved all over midwest and southern United States. From the dry desert of Arizona to the flat plains of Nebraska, I've been influenced by many cultures all over the U.S. and hope to continue to be inspired.

I want to make art that can capture emotion. Drawing, painting and creating various types of art has always reappeared in my life; whether it was bringing me solace or stirring up silenced dreams. I believe that art should make people feel involuntarily. Art should make people ask questions and even in many instances, make people angry. Whether it be sadness, joy, conflict... Art that can evoke any emotion is successful.
