Blue Clouds Marsh, Oil Painting

2020

Artist Comments
Coastal wetlands are a haven for wildlife, and to artist Nancy Hughes Miller, a place of endless inspiration. This painting features a moody sky with clouds in shades of blue floating over vibrant marsh grasses. "Blue and green are the colors of the marsh landscape, and my favorite combination to paint," says Nancy. "I create marsh scenes from my memory, observation and imagination, taking me - and I hope those who see my paintings - to a tranquil place."

About the Artist
Reflected in Nancy Hughes Miller’s paintings are the coastal and rural environments of southeastern North Carolina, her birthplace, where she still spends much of her time. As a child, Nancy’s primary education did not include art classes, so she was delighted when one day her oldest brother returned home from college with newsprint and charcoal. She went on to pursue a career path in graphic design and fine arts. Now a full-time artist, Nancy experiments with vibrant colors and fluid forms to create her non-traditional, painterly landscapes. She enjoys working with oils, a medium that dries slowly and lends itself nicely to blending. Nancy strives to produce artwork that is, according to her, “quiet, yet bold.”
