Kerry Milligan

I enjoy using a variety of mediums and sometimes alternating between abstract, landscape and floral. Each medium gives me the opportunity to experiment with the chosen subject. My recent project for 2026 are a series of expressive and colourful floral garden compositions.

My landscape paintings are colourful compositions created intuitively by using bands of colours, curvy lines and organic forms dissolving into one another. Inspired by landforms of the southwestern terrain, open countryside farming fields, and the rolling hills in mountain range valleys. My goal is to create both calming and intriguing compositions that awakens a memory of a place visited, imagined, or envisioned in a dream. They range from an abstract layout to a more detailed scenery, and recently the exploration of the northern lights.

My abstract paintings are intuitive, lyrical, expressive compositions - I call them my energy series. Abstract expressionism allows me to explore various ways of expressing my connection with the natural world. Each painting is a step into the unknown as I work to express nature’s energy between the chaotic and the peaceful. My goal is to create enticing compositions through spontaneous colour choices and intuitive application...
