Dianne Panarelli Miller was born in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1961. She received a diploma at Vesper George College of Art in 1982. There she met and later studied intensively with Robert Cormier until she began at the R.H. Ives Gammel Atelier established by Cormier and Robert Douglas Hunter in Gammel’s honor. She studied the traditional way to paint, in the “Boston Tradition”, full time year round for five years. David Lowery and Robert Moore were also included in the roster of impressive teachers.
It was while studying at the Atelier and being surrounded by the art galleries of Newbury Street and museums of Boston that she discovered the type of artist she wanted to be and began her quest to accomplish that objective.
Dianne has been the recipient of many awards locally and nationally in the thirty years she has been painting and is represented in many fine galleries as well as in hundreds of private collections. She is a signature member of the New England Plein Air Painters and has the distinguished honor to be awarded “Copley Master” at the Copley Society in Boston. In addition she is a member of the Portrait Society of America and Oil Painters of America.
Painting full time she is comfortable doing portraits, landscapes, cityscapes and murals accepting the challenges each subject brings with excitement and vitality.
