Improving mental well-being through art

Angela Miller with one of her artworks

Central Coast artist Angela Miller is on a mission to combat the negative effects of technology on mental well-being by reigniting the flame of imagination through her captivating artwork and online courses.

Described as a visionary artist and advocate for the transformative power of creativity, Miller believes art is the antidote to the monotony of daily routines and an over-reliance on technology.

As a former university art teacher, Miller’s innovative approach goes beyond traditional art classes.

Miller said she used art as a form of meditation and therapy, guiding participants on a transformative journey of self-discovery, emotional healing and rejuvenation in a safe and supportive environment – their own home with her expert guidance.

“Art has been my saving grace during the most challenging years of my life,” she said.

“I felt compelled to share it with others who may be struggling too.

“It’s not about the finished product, but the journey of self-discovery that art can take you one when used as a tool to heal and empower, especially when life may feel difficult.”

Miller said she never knew what she was going to paint when she started a work, instead beginning with a colour and style that felt right.

“Through my courses, I strive to help individuals reconnect with their innate creative brilliance, and in doing so, reclaim their balance and well-being,” she said.

Her online courses are accessible to anyone, and she also offers a monthly subscription package which allows self-paced learning and a connection to her community each week with video calls.
