She has an inquiring mind that constantly explores, questions, wonders (and wanders), argues, and engages whatever and whomever is around. And so her icon painting books reflect this. In short, you meet an extraordinary, strong, capable woman. For decades now, Mary Jane has documented her collections through writing Icon Painting Books. Through this medium, she invites men and women to journey with her, to go beyond our usual understanding of the Father through the Son in the Spirit. Miller's icon painting books are invitations to prayerful explore the role of women in our world from the perspective of icons.
