Artist Statement
Jeanne Hill Twilley
My work is infused with graceful brushwork and a variety of marks. I am American painter who works with oil, acrylic and pastel on canvas and paper. Influenced by abstract expressionist Richard Diebenkorn, French impressionists Pierre Bonnard and Claude Monet, my work is grounded in a sense of place.
Nature is prominent in many of my work to capture a glimpse of the many changes that are happening before our eyes. Painting in this way reminds me that the quick changes in nature are as common quick changes in our everyday lives. My work tells a quick story of the scenes unfolding around me. I maintain a working studio year round to capture the essence ofthe many people and scenes that make the most important marks on my life. My work is collected by partrons thoughout the United States.
