Dragon Lilies
11in x 14in framed prints
Artist: Ashley Miller
This painting illustrates that while something may appear innocent and beautiful on the outside, like the lovely lilies, there can be a hidden intensity beneath the surface. Deep in the background lies a dragon, symbolizing strength, and resilience. These beautiful flowers have an inner spark, a fighting spirit, and an unexpected bite that surprises those who underestimate them and fail to recognize what lies behind the “lilies” they present in public.

My name is Ashley, and I appreciate you taking the time to check out my art! I create Pour Paintings with fine-line work on top. Pour Painting resonates with me because it mirrors the chaos of life. Living with the “chaos” of mental illness is much like creating pour paintings. You carefully place the paint into a cup in exactly the way you want, then pour it onto the canvas, hoping the outcome will match your initial vision. However, the paint has a mind of its own. You must move and shimmy the canvas, allowing the paint to settle in its way. In the process, you learn to adapt. The fine-line work on top serves a dual purpose: it tells a story and helps me “take hold” of something that can take over my life my tremors. When I concentrate on something so delicate, my hands tend not to shake as much. Creating allows me to reclaim my life through experiences and changes that I hope resonate with others.
