About

Hello!  I am so happy you have stopped by for a visit!

My name is Jill and I enjoy learning, experimenting and creating ART in multiple mediums!

Creating art brings me JOY!  And I want to share that joy with you!

In 2015 – my first year of blogging, I created birds for 100 days and this inspired me to create my whimsical Weird Bird Wednesday and give you a smile!

In 2024, my goal is to create more variety and see what develops with my art. I have discovered that it is the journey and not necessarily the finished piece that brings me the most JOY!

Happy Creating!  🙂

    Hi Jill
    I nominated you for the sunshine blogger award on wordpress. I usually don’t participate on this kind of spread letter thing but this time I thought that maybe it could be something nice to spread sunshine over blogs.
    If you’re ok then here’s the “how to” :
    The Rules:
    – Thank the person(s) who nominated you in a blog post and link back to their blog.
    – Answer the 11 questions sent by the person who nominated you.
    – Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions.
    – List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo on your post and/or on your blog.

    The 11 questions :
    – do you think there’s a difference between art and decoration ? why ?
    – who’s your favorite painter (or writer) ?
    – when you look at art what are you looking for ?
    – do emotions have colors ?
    – do you think that concept art is a joke ?
    – does blogging help you to be creative ?
    – Da Vinci or Van Kooning ?
    – do you believe that artwork (paintings, photos, sculpture, literature, …) is more likely to speak to our mind or to our soul ?
    – what is more important to you : technique or spontaneity ?
    – is street-art vandalism ?
    – how about young children as teachers in art schools ?
    – why do people whisper when they talk inside of museums ?

    I sincerely hope this doesn’t bother you. If you decide not to participate that’s ok

    Cheers
    Uwe Hoche from doctorkandinsky.wordpress.com

      Thank you for the nomination. I do try to spread sunshine on my blog! 🌞 So nice of you to notice me! 😊 I don’t usually do these awards but you have some interesting questions – so I may have to participate this time! That is if I can find the time – life seems rather busy these days. Thanks again for your kind words of encouragement! 😍

    Jill, I would like permission to include your flying pelican on the cover of my next novel. It would be on the back with a few other images from other artists, and I expect the size would be no more than 2″x3″. I cannot pay but would include you in the acknowledgements listing people who have helped me on this project. Is this okay? –Tim Bryant
