Jill’s paintings and prints are derived from the landscape or natural found objects. Recent monotypes evoke the heat and dust of Morocco; some contain fragments of ‘ogam’ script, an ancient Celtic alphabet. The process of printmaking allows for a range of materials to be employed to create a rich variety of texture and form and these qualities are explored and exploited in making new work. Some are made spontaneously, others are more considered, but whether driven by process, form, or colour, all represent an expression of what it means to be human; as part of the environment, or perhaps in the landscape of the mind.
