Artists Who Rock: Coily and Cute
Introduction
My name is Sharee Miller aka Coilyandcute! I am located in Brooklyn, NY but I am originally from St. Thomas, USVI.
Type of Art you are known for:
I am known for drawing cute things! Mostly cartoons and happy characters. I mostly draw little girls or young women with natural hair.
What/ Who inspires you?
I am inspired by all the great natural hairstyles around me. I want to encourage young women and girls to love and embrace their natural hair. I think it is so important to see yourself in art. It is part of how our society decides what it thinks is beautiful. I think our natural is beautiful and I want others to see it too.
How long have you been an artist?
I have been drawing since I was young. I’ve always loved drawing and I always wanted to be an artist. I even got out of gym class by taking extra art classes in jr high.
Do you have a fave artist? If so who?
I love the work of many artists but my favorite right now is Geninne. She is a Mexican painter. She draws nature scenes and birds and I love how detailed they are.
Has any of your art been published? If so where?
I have a self published book called Night Time Routine.
It is available on amazon. Here is the link.
