Jill


This is Jill. She's an amazing, prolific and passionate artist, enjoys being outdoors and living in Maine, has a great sense of humor, throws the best Halloween parties, and she loves dogs - especially Great Danes. That's Jill in a nutshell.

You know I love all your portraits and I love this one too. Nicely done to capture a soul. (Which is a little of what I think you do.)

Thank you WS. I think that is a little of what I try to do so I appreciate your comment very much.

By the way, do you have a name or shall I just call you WS?

Your comment reminded me of a quote by Alice Neel, a great portrait painter. She said "Like Chekhov, I am a collector of souls... if I hadn't been an artist, I could have been a psychiatrist."

Sorry for the deleted comments...
Being overly chatty again...

That is certainly a thought-provoking quote!
