Colette Miller is an American born artist that works in painting, music, poetry and film. She received her degree in Fine Art from Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond and continued her film studies at UCLA. She is a well-regarded artist with authentic depth and diversity in her work, which reflects the many places she has lived and traveled to around the world. She has exhibited and sold her paintings internationally and is the creator of The Global Angel Wings Project.

Colette Miller created the Global Angel Wings Project in 2012, in the streets of Los Angeles, the City of Angels. They were painted to remind humanity that we are the angels of this earth. They are human sized interactive street art, wings that people take photos with and thus become part of the art. The first pair were painted illegally but the response was natural, immediate, and spontaneous – from people of all sorts and backgrounds, both those who were photographed and those who asked for the wings.

Colette has painted wings globally – Kenya, Australia, Taiwan, France, Cuba, Juarez Mexico, and more, and many in the USA.
Though some are commissioned, and others gifted, the wings themselves are free to the world, never owned by anyone, not even Colette, though they are of her provenance and her work.
