CHRIS MILES

I grew up in Utah and like Utah and the

West very much, especially for the skiing,

hiking, and general natural beauty. I

graduated in art from the University of Utah

in 1990 and then moved to New York City,

where I illustrated for magazines, book

covers, and children's books. While in New

York I also took some side trips into

publishing a volunteer neighborhood

newspaper and teaching English as a

Second Language. In 2000 I returned to

Salt Lake and have been doing fine art

ever since. In September 2006 my wife

Jeanny and I had twin girls, Maya and

Annika. I still manage to paint full time.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my work!
