About Mike Mills

Mike Mills is an award-winning artist and educator based in Cardiff. His work focuses on capturing the character of urban environments through expressive watercolour and pen and ink — rather than painting what he sees, Mike paints what he feels, using colour to reinterpret familiar places in a more atmospheric and personal way.

Each piece is an original, painted to capture a place as a feeling, not just a record.
