ARTIST REGISTRY

The Springfield Regional Arts Council has created a registry of artists in Springfield and our 27-county region in Southwest Missouri. The Artist Registry is compiled as a comprehensive catalogue and made available at local design trade shows and business expositions for residential and commercial purposes. Images of the artists' works are also presented in an electronic slideshow at various events and locations.

  • About Yourself

  • Native Miami born Mindy Tillery, a contemporary mixed media artist grew up with a love and deep appreciation of being surrounded by beautiful spaces, both in her childhood home as well as in the natural world. She studied art and architecture, with a passion for creating living spaces that reflect a balance of elegance with practicality. Her creative journey has led her to many opportunities including interior design and jewelry design. After her successful career as a professional interior designer she felt called back to her first passion and returned to her artistic roots as a full time practice in 2020.

    She has participated in numerous juried exhibits and has been the recipient of various awards.

  • There is beauty found in chaos and that is necessary to create order. I begin my process with wild uproar and unrestrained disorder as I work through my own oftentimes fearful reactions to the climate of current events,

    Creating beauty from chaos has given me a way to cope with things as they are, I find the process to be a healing balm for fostering harmony and well being in an oftentimes turbulent world.  

    I believe that beauty is an indication of divine order in the universe as shown in the cycles of time and seasons, in the microcosms of the natural world and the macrocosms of the vast galaxies all things are constantly consistently evolving.

    Fleeting and dreamlike is the nature of all things that come into existence and then fade away like youth and what modern culture perceives beauty to be.

    My abstracted and often figurative integrations are created with a process of mixing various mediums such as oil + cold wax, oil sticks, pan pastels, ink, collage and encaustic medium to name a few through laying on and excavating various layers to achieve a multi-dimensional visual experience.

    My creative process has led me on a journey into the dreamy and mysterious where I have discovered that through the contemplation of emotions I am able to find a healing balm for fostering harmony and well being in an oftentimes chaotic world.  A sense of humor is also very essential to keeping a good healthy balance in my life. My intention is that my art will spark something that brings joyful feelings of well being to my collectors.
