LETTER  OF  APPRECIATION  FROM  LONDON’S   SAINT   PAUL’S   CATHEDRAL

                 Reverend Peter Lynn in a Formal Statement to Shereen Miller dated Oct. 16, 1986


“I was deeply struck in the way in which the two dimensional picture, in its own way self- sufficient, was nevertheless integrated into a further dimension through a device at once simple yet wrought with the greatest patience and concern for precision. Surely patience, concern for detail, and transformation through integration are all indispensable elements in our search for peace.”

AMERICA Comments:

“Shereen Miller’s extraordinary Anamorphic art looks back to Renaissance experiments with optically filtered perception. In this she stands in the distinguished tradition of Leonardo da Vinci, who also investigated anamorphosis.”        Extract: Formal Statement by Professor George Hersey February 8, 1991

                      America’s Senior Art Historian/Head of ART History Department   YALE University  USA





“Shereen Miller is a genius with the anamorphic work,”explains Curator Linda Ledford of the Texas Regional Exhibition.  “Her art is very unique, its of museum quality.”

ENGLAND Comments:

To Shereen Miller: “It is fascinating to see anamorphic art in action and how its meaning can be intensified when separated from the cylinder whose presence one would have thought essential”

GREECE Comments:

“This work is very difficult. The sensitivity and technical ability of the artist is constant. Every processing of the composition is projected continuously on the smooth cylinder and the transformation, color and design are guided. The painted surface must be executed in such a way as to produce this result. If you can grasp the very difficult technique of this transformation, you will enjoy the excellent elaboration and poetic results of Miller.”                   

Senior Art Critic- Kirvokian,  Pizoenaeti Journal, Athens, October 30, 1980


       

“Shereen Miller shares the exalted company of such anamorphic artists as Leonardo da Vinci, Holbein, Carravagio, Carracci and Niceron and with her anamorphic concept brings Anamorphic Art into the 20th century. Historians applaud Miller’s research which has led to a formidable new collection-more than half of the world’s former collection spanning five centuries of time.”

INDIA Comments:

“Shereen Miller’s anamorphic works are of tremendous artistic appeal. They explore the possibilities of the technique lending itself to metaphysical themes providing the viewer with several levels of participation at one and the same time.The visual effects find lyrical expression, invoking an undeniable response.  A feeling of deep, almost unending space is afforded to them by the application of the laws of perspective which take on greater value through the mirrored cylinder lending greater depth... Adapted beautifully there is no doubt these paintings will have universal appeal.”

“Indeed, the medium’s innovative dimensions appear unlimited, Shereen’s creations are a more exciting kind of realism, a realism devoid of imitation to depict not a single aspect of the subject but what might be termed the external totality.”   Extract: “SHEREEN MILLER’S FINE ART CREATIONS” by Art Critic S. Chandrashekar January 5, 1980

AMERICA Comments Again:

“We have not seen such complex works of art in the modern world. There is certainly something very deep within the artist, a lot of depth and understanding of the fundamental basis of life”.   

Robert Grant, Faculty, MIU University, Iowa, USA, Video Documented Statement February 15, 1992



“Shereen Miller’s Exhibition is the most exciting and challenging display that I have ever seen in the history of art in my lifetime.”   David Sharp [Art Collector] Dallas, USA. Extract: Video Documented Statement  November 30, 1990




“Shereen Miller’s exhibition is the most prestigious exhibition. People have come from all over the Metroplex to enjoy the amazing anamorphic art. They are fascinated with the technical aspect of the art form, they enjoy it from a purely aesthetic standpoint, many are touched by the very spiritual aspect of Shereen’s work and also the perspective.... I’m so honored to work with Shereen and share her art with the Greater Dallas Metroplex.”         Lisa Proctor - Head of Public Relations    Irving Arts Center, Dallas, USA

in Oils by Shereen Miller

"She possesses a talent and inclination for both art and mathematics that beg comparison to Leonardo da Vinci. She is Shereen Miller -acclaimed, well respected award winning artist who has fashioned her own version of an ancient technique explored by the Renaissance genius himself.

Indeed, she is Shereen Miller -anamorphic pioneer, who is taking art to some intriguing new perspectives, breaking new ground by applying her mathematical and aesthetic talent."
