ARTIST STATEMENT​​​​
The landscapes around me—whether the coast, forests, or mountains—are a constant source of inspiration. My love for the outdoors shapes my work, as I’m drawn to capturing the beauty and essence of the natural settings around me. This admiration for the natural world, combined with my love of colour and desire to create something new and unique, manifests in my ethereal landscapes, atmospheric seascapes and more abstract pieces.
​
​Each painting creates a space for viewers to escape into, evoking a sense of calm and connection to nature. Often reminding the viewer of their own experiences, giving my work a reminiscent quality.
ARTIST BIO
Millie Fry (b. 1997) is an emerging British artist currently living and working in Bournemouth. In 2017 she attended Arts University Bournemouth and achieved a Distinction in a diploma in Art and Design. It was there she realised she wanted to pursue a career as an artist and since then has been developing and fine tuning her self-taught skills as an Oil Painter. Millie has shown work at Art Fairs around the UK, most recently Roy’s Art Fair in London.
​
Through growing up on the South Coast and travelling many beautiful parts of the World, her surroundings have immensely inspired her work. Whilst she uses the natural environment as a starting point, her imagination takes the lead role in creating her atmospheric oil paintings.
​
Through selling work in galleries along the south coast, on her own platform and at Art Fairs around the UK, Millie’s collectors continue to grow. Her work is sold internationally, and hangs in many homes across the World, including Europe, the United States and Australia.
