Artist Jilly, a native from NJ currently calls Texas home. Looking back, Jilly was always passionate about making art and believed she was an artist from a very young age. Her passion for color, fascination with painting and keen eye for design led to Jilly’s fine art training. She attended The School of Visual Arts, The Art Students League and received a Degree in Textile Design from FIT in NYC. Early on in her career, Jilly worked as a textile designer in the fashion, apparel and home furnishings industry in NYC. Also interested in people, Jilly received her MSW from Fordham University, NY and is a Licensed Psychotherapist with training in Art Therapy.

To know Jilly is to understand that color is her passion and the driving force in all her creations. She uses very bright, bold color and her canvas as a play-ground. Her paintings are filled with many different types of emotions, energy and colorful explosions. JillyArt is a celebration of life, capturing the essence and spirit of people, personalities and life experiences. Never planning her paintings ahead of time, she believes that by following her intuition and never limiting her self expression, her process evolves spontaneously as she goes about her visual journey. JillyArt is both figurative and expressive in style. It is an outpouring of her voice, feelings, visions, conflicts, fears and other emotions that are both conscious and subconscious. She finds great pleasure filling her canvas by combining vibrating colors full of energy and movement in ways that may touch and excite the viewer.

Jilly now works independently, painting and exhibiting her original paintings in galleries and shows throughout the US. Her paintings hang in various galleries, museums, hospitals, businesses and private homes. JillyArt has also been featured on several magazine covers and published in fine art books. She also believes strongly in giving back and donates her art to help raise money to support many of her favorite charities throughout the year.
Jilly’s mission is to continue to grow and evolve as an artist who can capture the spirit of life through artistic creations. To see more JillyArt, you are invited to visit her at www.jillyartdesigns.com

“A strong alliance of women” is what inspired us about Jilly’s “Faces in the Crowd” as presented on our cover. Thank you Jilly for being just who you are and embarking on your passion as a life path. Continue to create without boundaries!
