About Us
Neo Impressionistic Realism Artists
The husband and wife painting team of Kevin D. Miles and Wendy Schaefer-Miles is unique in the art world. They are two artists with one vision, working side-by-side on the same canvas. Their collaborative works have been displayed in some of the nation's largest galleries alongside such noted artists as Peter Max, Salvador Dali, Picasso and Rembrandt. The Wisconsin Foundation for the Arts selected Schaefer/Miles as their commissioned artists in 2003. This prestigious honor afforded them the opportunity to hang one of their elegant oil paintings in the governor's mansion. It has been placed in the permanent collection of Madison's Elvehjem Museum. Schaefer/Miles Impressionistic artworks have been widely published and are viewed and appreciated by over 7 million people a year. With distribution in over forty countries around the world the artist's popularity continues to grow. Despite this amazing level of exposure Wendy and Kevin have shunned media attention. When the somewhat private artists aren't searching for new inspiration they hold up on their farm in the rolling hills of Western Wisconsin , located in one of the least populated areas of the state, this retreat allows the artists the privacy to be creative. They teach art classes during their off season from touring and have a retail studio in Eau Claire, Wisconsin at Artisan Forge Studios alongside other creatives. The beauty of the surrounding countryside is often featured in the artists' works.
