ARTIST OF THE MONTH:
JILL BARTHORPE
From studying at the Trent Polytechnic Nottingham Jill went on to the Slade School of Fine Art, gaining a BA Hons. in Fine Art. Throughout her early career she was fortunate to gain patronage whilst studying and painting in France. She and her husband now divide their time between Cambridgeshire and London and although Jills paintings, in oils, (inspired mainly by the surrounding landscape of the area), she also enjoys working on still life compositions and says these are still very close to her heart.
Jill spends the majority of her time painting a ‘series’ of works and has exhibited many times, mostly in London.
