Stacey Neumiller originally hails from rural New Jersey where she grew up drawing and riding horses. After relocating to the west coast, she pursued her desire to work in the field of art by attending California State University, Chico where she earned a degree in graphic design with an emphasis on illustration. After a 30 plus year career in the field of graphic design, she now devotes her time to fine art.
For artist Stacey Neumiller, an important motive to paint lies in understanding her surroundings. “My paintings are my interpretation of the bucolic world in which I live. I’m visually compelled by color, value and quality of light. Through the process of painting, I gain deeper insight into my subject and its surroundings.”
Working in oil, combining the use of brushes and palette knives, Stacey Neumiller’s paintings are a lively dance of texture, light and color. Stacey finds a great deal of inspiration from Whidbey Island’s landscape, dramatic skies, barns, and animals. “There is beauty within the everyday and ordinary that only a painting can reveal. I’m drawn to these subjects in hopes of making and sharing such discoveries.”
