Nancy Hughes Miller
Moonlight Beach Clouds, Oil Painting

2024

About the Item

Artist Comments
Beneath the moonlit sky and wispy clouds, gentle waves crash upon the quiet shore. The vast expanse of the seascape offers a feeling of serene openness and possibilities. A profound sense of calm fills the rich blue hues across the scene.


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.”
