Introducing Stephen Milner, Artist Series Member
About Stephen Milner
My creativity is a passion that is true to my spirit and has influenced me from an early age.
My connection with the landscape started at an early age. When I was a young boy, my brothers and I would spend every minute exploring the landscape around our home. Every day, we created new ways to relive our adventures; whether it was exploring somewhere new or building makeshift bush huts, our adventures were creative.
My creative pathway turned to photography in 2012 when I picked up my first camera at university. My photography has taken me on a creative journey. It has been a journey that has taken me on many adventures to wonderful places. In recent years, my artwork has evolved into digital creativity. I feel fortunate that I can create my artwork and share how I see the landscape with you.
An artist with an innovative creative vision
I aim to become a New Zealand artist with a difference. I use photography and innovative digital tools to produce my artwork. Familiar forms, tones, colour and texture empower and add atmosphere to my artwork.
I am passionate about creating artwork that will inspire, excite, uplift and calm people wherever it is displayed. My high-quality ready to hang artwork is exquisitely hand crafted with professional materials, tools and techniques tools.
Connect with your ancestral DNA
Connect your ancestral connection to the landscape with a piece of my artwork. Add a window to the landscape to your empty wall space. Elevate it with a mood and inspire, excite, uplift and calm people.
