Roots in Pittsburgh

Roots in Pittsburg, a photo by elle3b on Flickr.

I met this fellow sometime ago. I was absolutely intrigued with his face. Now that I have painted him during this quick sketch session (about 4 hours), I know I have to do more. Spend more time getting deeper into this portrait. I will be calling upon him soon to work again. I am hooked and cannot resist a face that speaks to me.

California artist Lorelle Avonne Miller exhibits a sensitivity of mood and emotion in her work that is unique, a look into the deeper wells of her experience. Her motivation is to express and communicate appreciation of natural beauty and the intensity of the human experience. Over a lifetime of developed technique and personal investigation, Lorelle shares her visions through her paintings and sculpture. She has a broad yet very finely tuned spectrum of mediums which all contribute to her expression in visual art. Collectors and audiences round the world relate on a deeper level to her work. After viewing a piece of art be it a painting, sculpture or one of more than 50 street paintings made by Lorelle, viewers describe a sense of emotional impact which is long lasting and rare.

Lorelle’s visions came at a very early age through her art and writing. She is a graduate of California State University of Northridge. Her area of study was graphic design, illustration and sculpture. She continued her studies in graduate school and today studies with the contemporary master’s of the day such as David Leffel, Morgan Weistling, Mian Situ, Lynn Gertenbach and Margot Lennartz.

Lorelle ventured into commercial art and teaching for many years while raising her family with her husband Warren. She worked as a graphic designer/Manager and Illustrator for the bio-medical entrepreneur Alfred E. Mann and many of his world-renowned companies. She also taught fine art classes at her local Community College and private art schools in her community. Her commitment to the Arts brought her to serve on the Santa Clarita Arts Advisory Board for over 4 years.

Lorelle’s desire to create seems to intensify with every year. Her commitment to her work is steadfast, with a burning desire to learn and develop her craft to the utmost. To own a piece of art made by Lorelle is to own a morsel of her very fabric and soul. She lives with her family in Santa Clarita, California.
