Longing for Home

by Carly Milligan

As summer approaches I wanted to explore the joy, beauty, and intensity of exploration. With it, at least for me, always comes the desire to return home. This young woman adventures across not only new mountain ranges, but foreign planets.

Carly Milligan

Carly works to bring stories to life through her paintings, specializing in imaginative realism and figurative art. Growing up she was always a creative type and wanted to be everyone and everything, which explains why she’s always been drawn to stories. Nothing lets us explore other lives quite the way narratives do, whether they are told through paintings, books, games, animation, or photography. This love for narrative has drawn her to illustrating for fantasy and sci-fi novels. She has a chronic thirst to learn, explore, and experiment. Her academic background is a bachelor’s in zoology with a minor in chemistry. When not painting and experimenting in her studio you’ll probably find her in her garden or exploring the nearby mountains with her faithful and constant companion, Strider.
