Dear Reader, I was born in South Korea, and moved to the US at a young age. I always loved drawing and creating images with stories. This led to me studying Illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). I'm an illustrator and art educator. I try to instill in my students that visual arts takes effort, and it's a big part of our culture and communication process. One of the highlights of being an art teacher has been watching my students pursue their own art careers. I've worked as a graphic designer and staff illustrator. I've been able to see my illustrations and designs in magazines, newspapers, package designs, and picture books. My illustrations have been included in group exhibits with the Society of Illustrators LA, and the Society of Children's Books Writers & Illustrators (Georgia). I reside in Savannah, Georgia with my husband, son, and four guinea pigs. Thank you for taking the time to visit my site. Yours Truly, Nancy Miller |
