Beginning her career as an artist in Los Angeles, California; Emily continues her love for painting here on Kauai. The island's delicate mixes of color and tone make watercolors the first choice of Miller, also an accomplished artist in other media, from photography to glass and metal sculpture. Watercolor has always been a favorite of the artist - its abilities for free flow as well as precise control make it an ideal medium for many subjects.
Emily's subject matter ranges from tropical landscapes and seascapes
to botanicals, portraits and fantasy. The juxtaposition of nature and machine has always fascinated her. Here on Kauai where the jungle quickly reclaims any neglected areas, the possibilities are endless.
Miller is also intrigued by the beauty in later stages of life: aging, rusting, drying out or even rotting - the splendor of such objects is often overlooked in a culture more focused on the beauty of youth.
Emily Miller actively explores other applications of art and design. She works as a web and graphic designer at DataSpace Industries in Lihue, and serves on the board of directors for Kauai Recycling for the Arts, an educational nonprofit organization offering classes in transforming recycled glass into artwork.
