Today's Newsletter is Brought to You by BoldBrush CircleCreating Art is about Creating Magic. BoldBrush Recommends: Jill MaytorenaGet Notified When Jill Posts New Art BiographyJill Maytorena's portraits reveal figures who emerge through a glow of pastels and vibrant patterns. She has a unique style of capturing beauty through textural representations and forms. This series of artworks discovers the presence of patterns that are introspective and exploratory. Sewing patterns, patterned fabrics and papers, charcoals, and soft pastels blend in collaged layers to illuminate the topography of her figurative art. "In a state of chaotic possibilities, I surround myself with visual chatter as I sift through piles of fabric, paper, and appliqués. We are a collage - a tapestry of our fragmentary impressions, influences, and interests. I create collaged surfaces that reflect this inner reality. As I draw through these elements, I investigate pattern and decoration as a vehicle for fine art." Jill is a pastel and mixed media artist living and working in the small coastal town of Dana Point, California. She discovered the power of creativity at young age. She was greatly influenced by the places where she lived as a child and young adult including England and Texas. Her family artistically guided and nurtured her creativity with art, museums, and homes that were filled with crafts and textiles. After completing a BFA in Fine Art, and an MFA in Drawing from Laguna College of Art & Design, Jill has won many awards for her paintings and has participated in numerous group exhibitions. Her works are in public and private collections, including the Hilbert Museum of California Art, and the Laguna Art Museum. She can be found in her home studio with her loving and supporting husband of 30 years, her three children and the best dog she has ever known.
