Small Works
Moments in the Wild. Simple, intimate, and instantly felt.
Small Works: Moments in the Wild is a collection of intimate wildlife encounters—images that reveal their emotion and story in a single glance. Focused on clarity, gesture, and connection, these fine art prints are designed for smaller spaces while maintaining the same craftsmanship and intention as Dave Miller’s larger collections.
Made for Smaller Spaces
Perfect for shelves, desks, nooks and galleries. Small Works bring the beauty of the natural world into everyday places
Prints with Purpose
Printed in my studio with care and intention. Each print includes a story card about the image and the moment it was made.
