Natasha Tanner-Miller May's feature artist at The Gallery at Mattick's Farm
![]() |
Not a Breath |
Natasha Tanner-Miller is a self-taught artist who was born and raised on Vancouver Island and travelled by boat to the east coast where she currently lives and paints on Deer Island in the Bay of Fundy. Natasha has pioneered a unique painting technique where she creates haunting yet calming seascapes and landscapes using homemade maple charcoal from her wood fired pizza oven, ashes and acrylic paint used for the bold silhouettes and pops of colours. Most paintings consist of 40-60 layers of medium and sealers and usually take over a month to complete. She has always drawn inspiration from the dusk and dawn created silhouettes all around- especially trees and rugged coastlines, the sea and its boats, birds and beaches and her current work reflects this.
Natasha's work is quickly gaining momentum and collectability through her participation in international art fairs in Toronto, her representation in ten different galleries in North America and through an ongoing touring 40-piece exhibition through a Paris based gallery.

Fisgard at Dawn - varnished watercolour |
Kristofer Parley has been creating art for more than 30 years. In 2013, he moved into the heart of Victoria’s Chinatown with his husband, Nathan Davis. It took no time for him to fall in love with his new city. The friendly and welcoming community served as inspiration for his clean, crisp and vibrant watercolours. Kristofer’s pen & ink pieces capture a moment of time in black and grey; layers upon layers of detail encourage your eyes to wander at length within the illustration. His art resides in private collections in Russia, the UK, across Canada and The United States.
