Artist Statement for Mimi Millmier Mckinney
|
|
|
Over the years, working in several different mediums, I have specialized as a portrait and fantasy artist, doing most of this work in graphite pencil and acrylic paint. In my illustrations I romanticize reality by integrating familiar objects and people with dreamlike atmospheres, frequently combining realism with surrealism. The playful, enchanting subjects and settings in my illustrations are often inspired by my two charming little boys living in that magical world of childhood.
My artwork is a means of putting my mind at ease by describing the thoughts and dreams within and making them something others can enjoy again and again. With each new work, I am striving for perfection in creating a beautiful piece that is commanding, definitive, and powerful, yet, executed with delicate precision; a piece that will give my collectors beauty to enjoy, encouragement to follow their dreams, and inspiration to truly see and experience the intrinsic magnificent wonders of everyday life.
