Jill paints full-time in her studio in Dallas, Texas, with windows overlooking her garden and ‘80s music blaring.
She spent half her life in law – first as a criminal prosecutor, then civil litigator. (Just sit next to her at a dinner party to hear some wild stories!)
For Jill, abstract painting is an exercise in letting go of her usual analytical approach to life.
Being self-taught also gives her the freedom to paint without conforming to the formal ‘rules’ taught in art school.
She rarely plans out a piece from start to finish and instead allows her instincts to take over, joking that “no battleplan ever survives first contact with the enemy!”
Jill’s signature style is Calming + Captivating art -- soothing palettes and fluid shapes, with the occasional use of bold color or complex textures.
Jill has been recognized as a ‘New Texas Talent’. Her work is displayed in galleries and private and corporate collections throughout the U.S. -- and even a tv commercial for Dell.
