2014 Was A Hell Of A Year (photo album)

You know how some years stand out in your life more than others? I'm gonna say 2014 is going down in history for me. She was a tough one, but a good one, and I'll never forget her. This is one of my three pieces I did for the Tiny Trifecta show in summer at Tara McPherson's Cotton Candy Machine in New York.
Yours truly, Brandi Milne

I had a big show this year titled Here Inside My Broken Heart, in a pop-up location in Culver City with the Corey Helford Gallery. Here I am taking it in a few days before it was closing. All the stuff that 2014 handed me went right into the paintings for this show, as my work is a reflection of my life. Eep it was pretty heavy.

Oh, how did I miss this year-end wrap post? What an amazing, busy year you had.

I was so happy to catch your show "Here Inside My Broken Heart" and I consider that to be one of the highlights of my year.

Keep up all the good work.
