jill sykes
Aaaand exhale. I wish I could wander around in the garden that is LA based painter Jill Sykes‘ portfolio. Dreamy colors, simple compositions, and large-scale leafy goodness {up to 60″x37″ in some of these cases}. I’ve been invited to curate a show in LA this September, and I’ve included a few of Jill’s pieces… I’m counting down the days ’til I can see them in person!
I am very very very nearsighted. Can’t see at all without my glasses. Normally, looking at art that is not quite in focus makes me blink and try to adjust my glasses. But these are lovely. Perhaps it’s the subject matter, but the slight fuzziness makes it feel like you’re sitting in the sun with your eyes mostly shut just barely aware of the leaves blowing slightly in the breeze.
p.o. love love love your posts. one of my favorite sites. Thanks so much for finding these wonderful artists for us.
Love the Sycamore House she participated in!
