Two years after I retired from teaching in 2001, I studied painting
and drawing at Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario. I have
won awards at fairs, exhibit my work at local shows, and
welcome commissioned portrait opportunities. A member of
the Barrie Art Club, I will exhibit in various galleries.
Preferring to work with human or animal subjects, I desire to
capture the spirituality of all of God’s creations with a realistic
image. Graphite emphasizes the primitive light and shadow,
while acrylics magnify the beauteous glory of the spirit. Time
passes. I preserve precious moments.

Jill Price
Open House
Sunday Feb 5 from 1 to 3
Continuing on with her series of "Fabricated Landscapes" recently shown at Double Door Gallery in Antem Mills, Ontario Jill Price will feature 5 new works that examine our rapidly changing landscapes.
These new pieces are in response to Barrie adjusting it's southern boundary to include 2,293 hectares of land currently in the Town of Innisfil, as well as Price's observation of undeveloped pockets of land nestled within our city limits that point to our rural beginnings.
Currently living two streets away from farmland, Price finds herself on the edge of suburban sprawl, something she has coined "RURBIA". Photo based these mixed media works visually investigate how our culture simultaneously mimics and destroys nature through its industrious design and development.
