Ange Miller, I really can't even tell you how much you've helped me in my life.
I really appreciate you sharing with me and I wish everyone in this world would take your classes!
It's so much more than art - you've guided me through emotions, ego checks, and even being a better wife to my husband! You're like a best friend, best teacher, and therapist all wrapped into one beautiful soul!

Is this Membership suitable for beginners?
What will we be doing?
We will cover Everything ranging from still life, energy art, colour studies and musical response painting to intuitive portrait drawing, whimsical dreamscapes and things to do when you don't have the energy to create.
Drawing, painting, collage, mixed media... we'll mix it up and get you seeing yourself across a range of styles and media.. and THAT'S how you develop your purest expression.
Some lessons are studies, others will give you a finished product but everything will be geared towards saturating you with experiences which increase artistic skill and strengthen creative intuition.
If you're a beginner and you're keen to learn this is a nutritious place to start! You'll learn a lot as long as you're not afraid to be the beginner. There'll be a whole lotta love a support for you if you need it.
Practicing artists will also be nourished with new ideas and techniques, support for refining your style and dabbling with new mediums. Not to mention the sustaining of creative mindset so you can get on with the business of your glorious unfurling!
Let's kick off this adventure with enthusiasm, courage, and wonder! Ready to make your mark on the world? Let's go!
Who this is NOT for:
- Not recommended for artists who are completely content with their current mode of practice and don't need help or inspiration to develop technical or intuitive skills.
- Not recommended for anyone who values competition over community
- Not recommended for anyone not wanting to go on adventures or make messes and experience failure as well as discovery and wonder.
- Not recommended for anyone who hates listening to an Australian accent (haha)

Come ride with me! Let me get in your head and plant a beautiful, fruitful garden of empowering thoughts which will ripple out wonderfully into all the facets of your precious life.
I want excellence and breakthrough and a wild unfurling for you, so you remember the beauty of your authenticity. Your identity. Your purpose.
We'll learn to spin suffering and failure into bonafide gold.

Your Instructor
I grew up in rural hub country town Tamworth, NSW, Australia with productive parents who brought forth 7 children. In High School I remember largely feeling misplaced. When we would have career path advisory days and other students would be abuzz with gathering information for chasing their particular Dream Job; I floated aimlessly, wondering if I should just find a rich man and have his babies.
Wandering through life is the best way of describing the next 20 years. I did find a rich man. Not rich in monetary wealth but rich in spirit and purpose. I had four of his babies. But Something always kept me floating around... I knew there was Something More that I was missing. There was Something More to this. I have always been an artist, and the escape my creativity provided was definitely a vital harbour in the emotional storm.
It wouldn't be until my 40th birthday that I would realise why I was so lost in that school hall on Career Path Advisory days.
There was no banner with "Advocate for Humanity's Creative Identity".
No Banner with "Whole Hearted Searcher and Tester"
Not even a banner with "Artist/ Creative/ Entrepreneur"!!!
You see, it was creative expression which kept me intact through years of depression caused by the confusion of my purpose.
At the end of my rope, my spirit cried out and at the same time I was convicted that I must search harder, deeper, more purposefully and with all my heart.
In the most subtle but powerful way Creativity reassured me of my Name. Not "Ange", but the name too deep for words. The name of my spirit. It's too deep for words so I must use paint, actions, songs and love to speak it and understand it. To know my value.
Rewinding several years before this time I was employed as a lecturer at Avondale College University. I facilitated Lab in Painting & Drawing for 1st and 2nd year Bachelor students.
As I searched, I bounced things off my students and tested my findings with crafted curriculum and unique approaches.
Over the years of whole-hearted searching I came to realise for myself AND for my students that our Creative Identity had been imposed upon by the common value system which promotes Performance and Product over search and expression. This has enabled a creative confidence deficit in much of the population.
People are disconnected from their creative truth.
This enables competition, greed, desperation, anxiety, depression, narcissism, irresponsibility, oppression, emotional trauma and suicide.
What I stand on is make-or-break for me.
It has empowered such value, purpose, joy and goodness in my life regardless of circumstance.
This is the basis for my teaching.
So if you only want techniques, sorry (but not sorry).
There will be an ever-unfurling supply of training starting from here.
And I am SO EXCITED to see what ripples out from this little spot on the world wide web. Your feedback means SO MUCH TO ME!
If this teaching answers the call of your heart's cry for FREEDOM, please reach out and let me know!
Be BLESSED. xo
