Artist’s Statement

Mia's oil paintings blend illustrative detail with narrative depth, inspired by the local flora, fauna, and her domestic environment. Each piece captures the delicate interplay of natural light and shadow, celebrating everyday moments with a sense of wonder.

She loves words and writing, with books and reading filling her spare moments. Mia finds the ridiculousness of the English language infiltrating her title choices, so look closely and you will find idioms or cheesy quotes as titles to some artworks.

Mia's art is warm and bright and more often than not, brings humour and whimsy to her collectors homes. Her work has been described by collectors as ‘emotionally uplifting’, a description of which she is very proud.
