About Martin

JILL MARTIN is an American fine artist who's known for her floral and abstract work. She uses a unique color layering and texture that gives all her works a signature finish.

Born in Massachusetts, Jill took inspiration from living on both coasts, with a thirteen year stay in the farmlands of British Columbia. Her mother's appreciation and enthusiasm for art and culture exposed Jill to wonderful artwork at an early age with her many visits to the galleries and museums of Washington D.C. and New York City.

Jill earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Arizona, Tucson in 1991. She later took a post bachelor's education at the Art K-12 University of Arizona, graduating with a Masters of Fine Art degree in painting and drawing. She taught art in different schools in Arizona before she started creating her own artwork as an independent artist. One of those works won Painting Residency at Dorland Mountain Arts Colony in 2002. And she took first place in the juried show at the Back Street Galleries in Los Angeles the same year.

Since then, the popularity of Jill's work skyrocketed. She currently works and lives in North Carolina.
