Feeling the sympathy of wood, I have gravitated over the years toward the woodcut and wood sculpture. But material is only the beginning. The task has been to make personal what the material allows.

-Dan Miller

 

 

Known for his woodcut prints, Miller began creating sculptures out of scraps of wood from around his farm.

 

Born in Pittsburgh, Miller was recruited to study at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts by noted artist and educator Hobson Pittman. He received his MFA from the University of Pennsylvania.
