Claude Miller

Claude Miller was engaged in life.  Always in good shape, he enjoyed many sports and yet left plenty of time for performing in the theater and as a amatuer musician.  A man of the community, he often volunteered for local festivals and could be found embroiled in a good debate with family, friends and even strangers on a wide variety of subjects. 

 

All of these activities and interactions with people fueled the scenes of his drawings and paintings.  

 

A juried artist, Claude's drawings and paintings vary from 6" x 6" to 80" x 60" with an average size of approximately 3' x 4'.  He worked in oil and acrylics with style tending to be more realistic with some abstracts.  In Flint, Michigan his works have been shown at the Mott (Applewood} estate, Whiting Auditorium, Main Library, Greater Flint Arts Council, and the Presidential Conference Center at Mott College.

 

Graduating from A & T University - Greensboro, NC - as an Architectural Engineer,  his artistic talents also included model building, sculpting, illustrating and animation.

 

His work shows folk - doing what they do on an average day -- working, relaxing, playing and even thinking -- engaged in the places and spaces of life -- in very rich color.
