Miller Brittain.  Untitled.  Crayon on paper.
 
Born in Saint John, New Brunswick, 12 November 1912 
Died in Saint John, New Brunswick, 21 January 1968
Miller Brittain was an outstanding draughtsman, a painter, watercolourist and muralist. He was one of the few Canadian artists creating social satire in the 1930s; his crowded scenes of everyday life reflect a sympathy for humanity and an ability to express character through gesture.
Brittain was a founding member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, and a member of the Canadian Society of Graphic Artists and Contemporary Arts Society. Among his honours was the Canadian Centennial Medal, awarded posthumously.
