This vase was inspired by an image of a jar from 250 B.C. Thailand. As she painted it, Miller felt a connection across history with the unknown artist who sculpted it.  The anthurium was a Valentine's gift from her partner, and it was painted directly from life. "I struggled to paint it at first because I couldn't compete with how beautiful it was in person. I was only able to see my representation of it clearly and finish the piece after the flower had crumpled into a dry, crumpled mass."  Miller frequently contemplates the life of art itself and long-standing mysteries of creation and time. "I don't believe in a Creator, but I think often about creation relating to my female body and my art-making practice... The history of life and present-minded experience of it is deeply inspiring to me."

www.hazelthepainter.com /// @hazelthepainter /// Hazel Miller’s paintings feature lush botanical life, statuesque figures, and wild animals and insects. Her work demonstrates an interest in the overlapping fields of natural history and art history. Themes of her work range from impermanence and spirituality to metaphysics and deep time. Miller's paintings are characterized by imaginative color palettes and a close attention to brushstroke textures. Her most prominent stylistic inspirations include Modernist experiments in semi-abstraction and sumi-e painting methods and philosophy. Originally from San Antonio, TX (b. 1993), Miller now calls Spokane, WA her home. She graduated from the Pacific Northwest College of Art in 2016 (Rose City Scholarship) and is a recipient of an Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation grant (2018). Miller had her first solo show, “The Black Universe” in 2021 at Terrain Gallery in Spokane, WA. NOTE: Most large paintings are shipped rolled in a tube, but many can be stretched and shipped in a box or crate upon request. Please inquire about specific piece for more info.
