Documenting a flow I feel through my dreams both lucid and nocturnal helps me to relate to and understand experiences I have. Interpreting my travels is also dreamlike as I reimagine a place with its texture, sound, fragrance and visual impressions. Sometimes while using my photos I include borrowed bits of architecture, landscape, textile and pattern I have photographed. I use a large combination from my resource material to create a visual impression of my experience. In this process I am reminded and shown a spontaneous and wondrous world where time is collapsed to a single moment view. I feel my painting when finished is a gifted teaching of a memory of events, experiences and thoughts that now have a visual substance. I also create my paintings to experience the play of patterns, colour combinations and texture for the shear joy of witnessing the resulting unfoldment.

The paintings and stories of more than 80 paintings from eight collections. This anthology spans 15 years and includes works from The American South West, The North West, France, Italy, India, Tibet, Flowers & Gardens, and Inspired Journeys.

Full colour images and many full page or double page spreads, give a whimsical and soul-filled view of Jill’s magical world. Remembrances of places lived and experienced are shared with a passion.
