I have three pieces in the current show "The Lunar Project" at the Main Line Art Center in Haverford PA. Curated by Adam Chau this exhibition explores the interpretation and personal resonance of the Asian Zodiac. 2026 is year of the horse, which symbolizes vitality, speed, independence and perseverance. It's a great show, and I was extra thrilled when one of my pieces was chosen to be on the show card!

Faculty Show Poster Girl

I'm delighted to share that my piece "Painting Girl" was chosen as the Poster Image for the current MC3 Faculty show.

Image: "Painting Girl" o/c 36 x 24 inches Nancy Bea Miller 2014

It's fun, and a little startling, to see my image on posters, and flyers tacked up around campus. Gives that feeling of, "Wherever you go, there you are." LOL! It's a terrific show, the faculty at MC3 are really great, and it's interesting to see the alumni invitees excellent work mixed in as well!

We Do What We Must

I'm grateful to be included in this very cool show exploring the current role of women in society, entitled We Do What We Must , opening tonight at Rodger LaPelle Galleries in Old City Philadelphia. When I look at the five pieces I have in it, one photograph and four paintings, every single one documents a collaboration with a different friend (or two!) from several different areas of my life.  Making it clear that connections and friendships are crucially important to me as I move through this world.

Judging

Artists Eliza Auth (l) and Nancy Bea Miller (r) judging "100 Years of Art" at Harcum College  photo credit: Amy Shumoski

I was delighted to be invited to judge Harcum College's exhibition, 100 Years of Art, along with artist Eliza Auth. The work was extremely varied in every way making this a tough judging challenge! I especially appreciated having a co-judge to discuss the choices with. I've been invited to judge several other shows this past year, solo, so this colleague process made a nice change!

The show looks wonderful in the Marlo Little Theatre, which has been turned into a light-filled chapel of art with the help of perfectly proportioned temporary walls. It looks like it was meant to be an art gallery, although we were told it usually is used for lectures, musical recitals and yoga classes!

Philadelphia Plein Air Painters at NAA

This group show features works by artists in the Philadelphia Plein Air Painters. Artists exhibiting: Niloofar GH, Mike Manley, Nancy Bea Miller, Charles Newman, Alina Osipov, Jen Polillo, William Sentman, Lexi Thomas.

"The Philadelphia Plein Air Painters is a group of students and alumni from the prestigious Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, who have come together through their love of chasing light and painting on location in the outdoors. Although each artist has his or her own individual voice and painting style, the group’s work as a whole shares a common passion for careful observation of color and light, as well as the academic painting tradition.

Urban, suburban, seaside or country–everything is a subject for their brushes and palettes." ~NAA

On view: January 6, 2015 – January 31, 2015.

City Hall Show!

I'm happy to announce I am included in Without the Wall, a group show curated by Treacy Ziegler. This show will be on display on the second floor of Philadelphia City Hall, right outside the Mayor's offices. The opening is Wednesday June 25, 5-7 pm. Can you guess which piece is mine in this photo? :-)

Ziegler invited a number of  professional artists to create artwork which she then paired with artwork made by her students who are inmates in a New York prison. “Ziegler’s curatorial play further blurs the line between professional and self-taught art,” says Helen Haynes, the City’s new Chief Cultural Officer. “But what she’s also doing in her comparisons, whether it’s her intention or not, is to allow us to recognize through the prism of art - within the darkest of settings such as a prison - there can be an uplifting display of human potential.” You can read more about the show by clicking here.
