(Meet the Artist) outdoors Art Show. Since then he has participated in
shows in Florida, Pennsylvania, New York and his home state of New Jersey.

also been granted a one man show on August 10th 1986 by the Mayor of Weehawken

Guide. He has also Painted a 8 foot x 10 foot Backdrop for the Band US

Steve illustrates his
individualism through his paintings. He continually expresses a warmth for his
subjects, while projecting them into the Future. Though he likes Science
Fiction and Fantasy he does all forms and styles including Illustration,
Landscape, Portraits, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Photo-Realism, Painting
touch-ups and color matching. His art is endearing to both young and
old. Through his paintings he reaches all our inner hopes, showing us a
peaceful future despite current turbulent times.
Steve H. Miller has
completed over 75 paintings to date, 55 of these paintings and thousands of
prints can be found in private collections throughout the Country and
World. He has sold all but about 20 that he still has and shows through
his Web Site & Online Store.
In 1986 Paradox Art Studio
merged with Penny Lane Photo Lab Located on the corner of 15th Street &
Summit Avenue, Union City New Jersey. This was a real plus for business,
now he could show the paintings and had the capability of producing the prints
that he sells, on the premises. In 1988 the building was destroyed by
fire, luckily the paintings were removed before any were damaged.
In 1992 Steve wanted to
broaden his skills and business, so he studied Graphic Art and Design. He
received his Certificate of Completion in 1993 from the Plaza School in Maywood
New Jersey.
In 1993 Steve introduced these
skills to Paradox Art Studio now doing Fine Art and Graphic Design being one of
the few in the world to do this. In 1993 Steve landed a Great Account with
Valentino Originals, Inc., Maker of the Championship Belts for the Professional Boxers
throughout the World. From that day on to date Steve Miller has been
designing these Championship Belts.
In 1998 Steve wanted to
expand his creativity once again and studied Web Site Design, Hosting, Online Stores
& Maintenance along with Flash Animation. He incorporated it into the business in 1999.
