About

Gina Miller is an artist residing in New York City, and she works in the fashion industry as a textile CAD designer as her 9-5 job and creates artwork in a printmaking studio and in her apartment in her free time. She is generally from Texas and graduated with a B.F.A. in Illustration with a minor in Fibers from the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, GA in 2017. Upon graduation, she took her love for repeat patterns and drawing and began working immediately in fashion with her first full-time job in Wisconsin, and she later moved to NYC at the end of 2018 where she has had several jobs and currently has been working at American Eagle on the men's CAD team for over 2 years designing prints and yarn-dyes.

Outside of creating prints for clothing, she primarily focuses on intaglio printmaking, along with sketching, watercolor painting, and sewing. She took an etching class in her senior year of college and fell in love with the laborious technique, continuing to lean more into printmaking as her primary medium and work to show in fairs and galleries. Much of her personal work focuses on the theme of impermanence and reflecting on having hope despite that. The heart and meaning of her works derive from Biblical Scripture and are extrapolated into a broader interpretation through the use of symbolism in flora and fauna. The impermanence that Gina illustrates through flowers, insects, and animals are not meant to evoke despair, but in connection Scripture, instead evoke hope, peace, and joy. Our lives are so short on this earth, and her hope and reason for creating is from a place of being loved, accepted, and saved by Jesus Christ. Her etchings may speak to the viewer that they are not alone in their human condition, loss, or pain, and in all things, she creates art to glorify the Lord. Through the long process of research, sketching, planning, and working on the copper plates step by step, she is praying over the viewers of her work to receive peace, healing, and comfort from the Lord's presence.

Gina’s artwork is apart of her personal ministry, as she seeks to reach people with hardened hearts with the love and transformative power of Jesus, using words or not. She has led weekly neighborhood small groups “Dinner Parties” with her church C3NYC for 5 years. She was a leader on the church’s Prayer Team for 3 years, serving on the team on Sundays and being apart of set-up and tear-down. She has hosted a weekly Prayer Night and worship nights in her home since 2019, in person and online, connecting people from across the United States in a space to grow in prayer and grow closer to Jesus. After starting her Prayer Nights, she attended an 8-day seminar and training at the end of 2019 at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City on “Building a House of Prayer”. She was trained up in prophesy from 2020-2021 through FGAG church in Bangalore, India in partnership with Christian International.

Along with being in the print-making studio in mid-town, you can spot her in her signature bob haircut sketching at a coffee shop, walking in the park, at an art museum, at church, or cooking in her kitchen.
