Downtown Mill Valley
Longtime MV Resident Patricia Gwilliam Ziegler, Creator of the Gorgeous Back Cover of the 2024-25 Enjoy Mill Valley Guide, is the Chamber’s Selection as Artist of the Month for October – Artwalk Is Oct. 1st, 5:30-7:30!
To Patricia Gwilliam Ziegler painting is her lifelong personal journal, a visual expression of her relationships and experiences, interpretations of memories that linger in her heart beyond words. Family, parenting, marriage, as well as the simple moments of every day are her inspirations. To Ziegler the act of painting is like vivid dreaming. She starts with a color or a vague memory and follows her brush as it reveals the image, developing into an enchanted vision with a life of its own.
