'Still Life with Orchids and Persimmon', California School of Fine Arts

Circa 1985

Signed lower right, 'Carolyn Miller' (American, 20th century) and painted circa 1975. A substantial, Post-Impressionist oil still-life showing a view of various objects, including yellow orchids informally arranged in a purple vase, set on a table draped with a striped and floral tablecloth. A striking modernist work by this well-exhibited Colorado woman artist. Carolyn Miller first studied at the Art Students League of Denver as a student of Quang Ho, Mark Daily and subsequently, with Stephen Quiller, Richard Schmid, Fran Larsen and Carl Dalio. She has exhibited widely and with success and is the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards. EDUCATION BA, Stephen F.
