"Do you know how to draw cats?" she asked. I was 13. If anyone thinks they know something at 13, like the answer to that, it would be a lie. "I think so." I replied. And she showed me along with her method of drawing upside-down. Fifty years later I really learned the importance of multiple agles and curves necessary to draw a cat in motion, the pliable and subtle line of the feline. A few months went into forming an English alphabet of cats. And of course cats vary in pattern, so 2023 included the creation of a few monetary symbols, puctuations a cat would add. This is one of a set of videos . Enjoy the tuxedo party. Cat typography art fonts ready for you to access at jilljj.com

Since 2022 I've reprioritized galleries to participate in but want everyone to know I have also since created hundreds of new sets and many new collections suited to enhance just about any environment.  To access the full 50 year portfolio please follow my website; jilljj.com

Resume; my lengthy history of Art Professionalism (sign in to linked in to access my bio records below)

Because I've done Interior design jobs myself, I want to make the best quality art possible available, and as big as possible. Big is my garden someday when data measures in the jillions of bytes and still fits in your pocket, that would be nice, someday.

At present many of my digital prints are a whopping 50 megabytes at 40 x 60-inch size. If you'd like custom prints enlarged, I'd be glad to arrange that according to your specifications.  

Here at Artmajeur and in many other galleries prints and digital files are generally 25 megabytes or close to half what I can offer if you want to customize, and I am open to customizations.

So common math dictates file sizes here will be approximately;

2160 x 8340 pixels at 150 dpi pixels or 59 pixels per cm = 4413x2493 pixels =24.3 megabytes in png format because .pngs have smoother edges and allow for transparency (a plus for designers).

But again, let me know if you'd like them even bigger, like the gardens that keep getting bigger in this video. 

If you catch a certain scene you'd like prints of, let me know. At 15 frames per second this six-minute video alone is jam-packed with possibilities for print, commercial, and media uses; backgrounds, products, ads, eye-catchers, buttons, banners, bowls, and a million more options; unmarked, high-definition, big scale or small.

So take a little walk with me down these garden paths. I promise stunning vistas on the way.

I truly hope you will find my new art frequencies healing. This video was created using pictures of my garden, which I fractalized into kaleidoscopic views. 

In addition to the energy emanating from the fresh growth of Spring, I've added Rife frequencies and meditative music to renew your body, mind, and spirit.

This month I'll be adding the best clips of kaleidoscopic and nature mandalas to Artmajeur and will have an abundance of previously unpublished and unmarked videos and stills available for digital media and print usage. Fractals like these make stunning visuals for youtube videos, awesome print backgrounds, and book or cd covers; can be applied to anything from your gardening clogs to beach towels or apparel to umbrellas to rugs and mugs, to totes to your garden pots and anything else you fancy.

So do follow me into the gardens. We will find all kinds of unexpected forms, patterns, symbols, and meanings within the mandalas. 

They scale well to suit any space, so whether you are container gardening or have a few hundred feet to fill, the best of my new creations will add the feng shui fresh air needed.

Self Portrait Portfolio 2020 and Beyond

Springtime is Bootcamp abundance of subject matter. I currently have ten nature paintings in the works; a triptych of florals, a triptych of horses, rain on Venus Beach, and abalone shells. I'm getting things done at Cedar Hill Farm and have been posting my related photography and mixed media in my gallery at Fine Art America, so you are most welcome to access my newest showings there through jilljj.com

Infinity Without Horizons 1

It started innocently enough, an oil painting of a sunset. Then it turned into a set of sunsets. As it progressed, I decided to see what would happen if I broke the rule about having to set a horizon line. Then it got tricky to paint so I turned them upside down, which might surprise you too; they look right no matter how you hang them up. So I left my signature off to allow you to hang them any dang way you want. Personally, I like versatility, s here you go, there are two similar paintings in this set. Have a nice time exploring infinity without horizons

Third Eye Crown

She began with the inner idea of expressing a vision. Henna drawing on paper became a portrait of the inner statements of a young woman crowned with inner vision. It was not difficult to digitally enhance her form into new age portraiture. As she gazes directly at you, we recognize this infinite look of inner strength and composure; a look at possibilities. Who is she? She is someone you know. This can be further enhanced in hand-painted golden line with marbled iridescent texture. Take a closer look with digital viewing frame options. If you like this, imagine it enhanced with highlights of real iridescence and metallic pigments atop the outlines, as this is my vision of a complete painting or print giclée. I'd like to add shimmer to make it really stand out as limited-edition collectible. I'd also like to provide you a certificate of authenticity and my signature. Contact me for added features and your free consultation. This is part of my collection of golden metallic paintings

Third Eye View of Warm Earth Reflections

A journey to a kaleidoscopic paradise view of my beloved fishing spot in the sun in marbled iridescent texture. See the Warm Earth Reflection accompaniment to this view. Take a closer look. If you like this, imagine it enhanced with highlights of real iridescence and metallic pigments atop the outlines, as this is my vision of a complete painting or print giclée.

Swan Emergence 2021

As a commentary on coming into 2021, I hope to experience the jewel-like nature of things; such as droplets of the swan become part of the feathers and the swan becomes a lake that is dappled in the prisms of sun. On the original, the shimmer is quite evident. With a little hand-enhancement, I can portray the shimmer of the original to create a jewel for your wall. Take a closer look. If you like this, imagine it enhanced with highlights of real iridescence and metallic pigments atop the outlines, as this is my vision of a complete painting or print giclée.

Irises Henna on Rayon Laundered

So I wanted to try henna on a piece of rayon. the whole thing might melt though in a rinse cycle. This is why sometimes it's important to take pictures of wet henna. I've repaired the damage far too often when someone smears their freshly applied paint or puts an unfixed tie-die in the laundry on extreme hot agitation. This is rare because I digitized the work and the original does not exist. This is just how it worked out; sorta like a henna golden metallic iridescent batik of watercolor, a culmination of my skills. Take a closer look with FAA digital viewing frame options. If you like this, imagine it enhanced with highlights of real iridescence and metallic pigments atop the outlines, as this is my vision of a complete painting or print giclée.

Title: 2021 Emergence Moonlit Swan 

Painting: Oil on Canvas, Other, Plastic.

As a result of 2020 and previous to it, this scene occurred to me and likely millions of others simultaneously. My feathers are ruffled in the dark, cool, rough & rugged waters. My course has been thrown off due to circumstances beyond my control. I shall ride the onslaght of waves as best I can. But you will see a little red in my eye as I do when things get difficult. But see how this photo cyn Sennelier pigment glows in the moon, and how the stars actually twinkle so much it reflects in the water. So the waves light up too. It collects light, then turns light back on to accompany you all night. An original oil painting I'll have a hard time selling. 2021 is seeing me to shore and safe harbour.

Title; St Johns Shoreline at Sunrise 

Painting: Oil on Canvas.

On a walk through St. Johns Park at sunrise with a friend began the desire to paint as Monet; lilypads at peace in reflective waters. So this leads to many more fishing trips, walks and a new camera to really capture the nuances of a beautiful Autumn day. I'm keeping the original oil until I get an offer of 7777777 or more, but you might want this to be part of your paradise collection, so for now, prints will make your day

Title: Birds in Paradise Centerpiece

Painting: Oil on Canvas.

This is meant to be a centerpiece of a 3-4 part oil painting project based on lake scenes, lilypads, reflections, ripples, colorful trees that look floral and blend into brushes that look like irises and waves that make the water look warped and deep lilypads more than you can count, and a couple of blue herons doing what blue herons do flamboyantly. You'll be taking a big dip into aquamarine golden purple reflective waters. Hope you know how to swim with your eyes when you go on this virtual trip to my favorite fishing spot. I'm still workin on a possible gigantic painting to go with the set of 3 I have completed, so prints are available of what I presently have.
