    Miller's next exhibit will look at the immense changes in Santa Clara Valley


    "Don't worry, I don't clean my studio for anyone," Lisa Dale Miller said over the phone." The driveway at Miller's home in the Los Gatos hills winds down behind the house to her studio. Meeting her there is like meeting a good friend. She's warm; she wants to give you tea, make you comfortable, and she has an easy laugh. The sparse artwork and peaceful atmosphere around Miller's studio belies the body of work she's created, and the enormous project she's working on now. But the 16 bright red lips glued in neat little rows to a white square, hanging on the west wall, hint that Miller's art is about more than creating beautiful pictures.   More
