John Miller was born in London in 1931, and spent most of his adult life in Penzance.
Miller began his career in church architecture, but soon moved to a different form of art. Many of his paintings reflect his travels abroad to places as far afield as Venice and Goa. John Miller’s paintings were also influenced by his deep spiritual beliefs. He lived in West Cornwall with partner Michael Truscott from the late nineteen fifties until his death in 2002.
In 1989, John published an autobiography, “Leave Tomorrow Behind”. Several other books have also been published about this artist. He died in 2002. John Miller’s work is currently (2004-5) the subject of academic investigation by a postgraduate student at the University of Kent, Canterbury, England. John Miller's works are currently (2009) viewable and sold at New Craftsman gallery in St.Ives.
