​

At art college Jilly studied multi-media, batik, screen printing and calligraphy. This led to her teaching art as a career for more than 25 years.

 

Since retiring, Jilly has relocated from Oxfordshire to North Wales, and has been re-energised by the stunning surroundings of Snowdonia.

 

Looking for a flexible new medium and inspired by the breath-taking North Wales coastline near her home, Jilly has embarked on her current passion for pastel interpretation of crustaceans and sea life.

 

“As a student, at art college in London, I was always drawn to the National History Museum. I spent many hours sketching and developing themes.”

 

Jilly’s unique paintings are lively, spontaneous, and often humorous, choosing her colourful palettes from a wide range of vibrant soft pastels.
