Sheila Miles Exhibition Extended at Gonzaga University School of Law
[City, State] – [Date] – The Art Spirit Gallery is pleased to announce the extension of the exhibition of artwork by renowned artist Sheila Miles at Gonzaga University School of Law, continuing through July 2025. The exhibition features a selection of Miles’ captivating landscapes, imbued with a sense of place and time.
Miles, represented by The Art Spirit Gallery, is a prolific figurative painter with over 50 years of experience. Her work is included in numerous public collections, including the New Mexico Arts in Public Places and the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Her unique approach to landscape painting is deeply personal, drawing inspiration from her extensive travels throughout the American West.
“I have over 70,000 photos on my phone ‘in the Cloud,’ saved from trips throughout the West,” Miles explains. “My husband and I drive the ‘slow roads,’ and I hang out the window shooting things, usually at 70 miles an hour. I might shoot 3000 photos in a day, and every day I go to my studio and discover the photo I want to paint.”
Miles’ paintings capture the beauty of seemingly ordinary places, transforming familiar scenes into moments of quiet contemplation. “I want to make the ordinary extraordinary and depict beauty in the unnoticed,” she says. “The places trigger a common familiarity for the viewer, providing solace and a place to sink into.”
The exhibition at Gonzaga University School of Law offers a compelling opportunity to experience Miles’ distinctive artistic vision.
