Having lived her entire life believing she had no artistic ability, Mueller, an Obstetrician-Gynecologist, painted out of boredom one day in 2016, and it changed her life. Her light-filled work received almost immediate recognition, in 2018 winning Artist Magazine’s annual competition for artists with less than 6 years of study for her landscape painting. She has been recognized with significant awards in local and national shows and competitions, and is a member of Oil Painters of America, American Women Artists, The Rockport Art Association, and NOAPS. She practices medicine in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, and lives and paints in Durham, New Hampshire.
