ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT: Whiterose's Art will be a part of our Star Wars: The Last Jedi Group Art Show in conjunction with Jirani Con Christmas at Jirani Coffeehouse on Dec. 16th. Come see her work along with many other of our areas most talented artist.

Read below to learn more about Heather and her amazing artwork:

Hi, I’m Heather Miller. I am an artist living just outside Washington, D.C. in Northern Virginia. I received my BFA in Digital Art from George Mason University in 2011. I exhibit my work throughout the region. I am a non-traditional artist so you won’t find my work in stuffy galleries. I stick to casual galleries and art shows that appeal to a lot of audiences.

I dabble in many forms and mediums of art and hope that my work inspires others to do the same. I try to keep my prices low so that most anyone can afford to buy a unique, custom piece of art rather than a mass-produced piece from a chain store. Price shouldn’t prevent you from having truly unique art in your home.

In the past, I owned a gift shop, Journeys of the Soul, in Columbus, Ohio. I also co-founded a non-profit education center, Sanctuary, in Medina, Ohio. While it existed, I served as the director of the Arts & Cultural center and was the Editor In Chief of the newsletter, The Human Voice. I created some fun, and profitable, events for the center including the Holistic Fair, a 2-day monthly event featuring performers, vendors, healers, and psychics. We also held art shows, concerts, and offered a wide array of classes covering everything from art to zen.
