Hi! My name is Amber Miller and I am an artist, interior designer and owner of Green Tiger Interiors, an online store which imports colourful handmade homeware from around the world. I currently live in Tauranga with my husband and three teenage daughters.

Born and raised in Dunedin, I developed a passion for art at a very young age. Painting provided me with a sense of solitude and creative fulfilment.

During my early careers as a nurse and teacher (as art was not considered a viable option in those days) I painted as a hobby. Oh how times have changed!

During my many years abroad, I dedicated my spare time to painting, taking workshops were I could and independently selling my artwork to colleagues and travellers.

Over the years I have been lucky enough to teach art to children and collaborate in creating community murals; fostering creativity and a sense of togetherness through colourful creations.

My artwork is a fusion of vibrant colour and a profound love for nature, resulting in pieces that capture the awe-inspiring beauty of the New Zealand landscapes with a touch of imagination and fun. My preferred medium to work with is water mixable oils as I love the way they blend and layer. Not to mention the vibrant colours and faster drying time.
