Kathleen Miller of Pinehurst, North Carolina, took her first painting class over forty years ago. That class instilled a lifetime of passion for Traditional Decorative Painting, and it drove her to hone her skills while capturing realistic and recognizable images in her work.
While her floral subjects are often a subject of her work, her still life and landscape paintings reflect a love for nostalgic images and our historic past. Kathleen travels as often as possible to New England, and to Colonial Williamsburg, in search of historic sites and inspiration. This year, she attended and commemorated the Battle at the Horseshoe House in Carthage in her work.
Kathleen has been accredited by the International Society of Decorative Painters, and her work has been featured in the White House, the Smithsonian, and the Folk Art Museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She also teaches Advanced Decorative Painting in her home studio, and she'll soon be offering a series of classes for beginners at Artworks Vass.
