Jill Hackney

Jill Hackney (b. 1968, Ohio) explores the interplay of reflected light and atmosphere in her art. Known for her still lifes and landscapes, Hackney captures the impact of light on her subjects through her distinctive technique of layering paint using both vertical, linear strokes as well as a more painterly method. Each painting is approached with a sense of nostalgia. The end effect is a union of the senses, which awakens feelings of joy, serenity, and peace.
