Hi and welcome to my shop. I'm Jill, a self-taught watercolour and mixed media artist.
I started paintining after visiting the City of Bath and painting the famous Sally Lunn's Tea Rooms from a postcard I'd bought there. Friends loved the result, and I started painting home portraits as special gifts. This was many years ago in my 20's.
I gave up painting while my children grew up and I studied midwifery in the interim. I still work as a midwife, but I have more time for me now and so I've picked up my brushes again. Painting takes me to another world I get so lost in it.
I live on the coastline in Deal, Kent, so seascapes, street scenes and places of beauty inspire me. Christmas is my favourite season, so I love incorporating snow and lights into my paintings to give a wintry magical feel.
My work has a whimsical feel, whether that's a snowy street on a winter's night or a summer sunrise from the beach. I pay very close attention to detail and often include ink, enamel or pastel to make the colours and detail pop.
Thank you so much for visiting. If you'd like to chat to me about a special commission (perhaps a house portrait or a favourite scene) or you would like more details about any of my prints and cards, please do drop me a message. If you would like one of my prints but would like it in a larger size, let me know and I'll come back with a quote.
Speak soon!
