Every child drew when young, though Mills requested a pencil over crayons to get better detail. This fascination with detail became his calling card. He sold his first drawing at the age of 11 and has been selling ever since. He helped pay for his college degree by drawing yachts as a summer job on the docks of Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard. Having never taken an art class in high school, and studying to be a musician, of all things he began college as meteorology major. This did not work well for him and ended up working in a factory for a year instead, bringing him to a new reality. He resumed his education at Bridgewater State College in Massachusetts where he became an art major. Realizing his talent through his painting professor, William Kendall, he embraced the art program, received his BA in Art and graduated magna cum laude in 1982.
