Born and raised on Vancouver Island, Natasha Tanner-Miller travelled by boat to the east coast where she currently lives and paints on Deer Island in the Bay of Fundy. A self-taught artist, Natasha has pioneered a unique painting technique where she creates haunting yet calming seascapes and landscapes using homemade maple charcoal from her wood fired pizza oven, ashes and acrylic paint used for the bold silhouettes and pops of colours.
Most paintings consist of 40-60 layers of medium and sealers and usually take over a month to complete. Drawing inspiration from silhouettes of nature created at dusk and dawn, she is especially intrigued by the sea, boats, birds and beaches.
