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 book is on the Apple Book store. There is a print book in the gallery but this Apple Book is a multimedia book with built in slide shows. Covers many of Jill's collections and some 80 paintings
