Nancy Hughes Miller - contemporary landscape paintings

Inspired by beauty in the landscape, I seek to capture a bold yet quiet impression of everyday nature — as the colors of sky, earth and water converge on the horizon.

I grew up in southeastern North Carolina and its coastal environment is reflected in my art. Influential are this region's vistas and scenes, where marsh and the Intracoastal Waterway separate the mainland from the barrier islands. My subjects are derived from these familiar views, where the sky looms large and clouds dance over the beach or wetlands landscape . . .
