Beth Miller (MillerModernArt)

I was born and raised in Michigan on a horse farm by a loving family. I’ve been living in Fishers, Indiana for well over 25 years. I fell in love with art at an early age and found myself coloring, crafting or painting. My mother put me into art classes, and I brought home my works of art for her which I know she loved :). As I grew up, I explored painting, clay, watercolor, and any other medium. Alas, adulthood and jobs got in the way. It’s only recently that I’ve explored painting more just to help me destress and relax.

It wasn’t until the renovation of our first floor that I discovered a different technique of fluid art. After designing our home interior, I set out to create a few pieces of art for the dining room and family room walls. After creating those, it left me still inspired and I needed an outlet. So, I converted a room into my own perfect getaway and my journey into fluid art began. I started following several artists and exploring many different painting techniques and settled on fluid art. I am starting out and have built followers and a business primarily through social media. I love commission art and am inspired to take that on based on a customer’s personal requirements.

I feel the power of creation. Each time I touch a canvas, I create a unique painting every time. It is nearly impossible to duplicate each piece of art. To me, that is so powerful. Something all my own and incredibly unique. My medium is acrylic on canvas and I utilize paints and pigments. I have a few different styles using thinned paint. The blend of ingredients determines if there are pearls created in the art. For those with pearls, I manipulate the paint around the canvas and stretch it very thin so that the basecoat pops up through the colors. I add various cloud and bloom paints to add color back into the painting based on the flow of the design of the painting. For those without pearls, I use a different combination of ingredients and create more of an abstract design. ​

I find creating art so centering and rewarding. I appreciate your support and getting to know me.

Cheers to your good health, Beth
