Cheryl Miller is a life-long resident of NE Ohio. Having had
an appreciation for drawing, gardening and nature early on, she began her
career as an artist in the early 1980’s when approached by a family friend to
render a local historic building in graphite. After exploring several different
media and subjects along the way she has now combined her love of gardening
with her art. Always possessing a fascination with detail, much of her recent
work has concentrated on botanical subjects that are drawn in colored pencil
and graphite. The inspiration for this art form is found nearby as she is an
avid gardener and explorer of the natural world around her home.
