Jill Van Sickle
After earning her degree in Fine Arts from the University of Wisconsin, River Falls, Jill Van Sickle went on to become a full-time professional artist. She spends her time making paintings for retail galleries and private commissions. Recently, Jill's work has gained the attention of hospitals and health clinics for how her paintings can transform a room into calming space. Her original work is now in the permanent collection of over 30 hospital rooms, emergency rooms, clinic offices, and healing centers.
Jill's passion is color. Whether she's painting recognizable subjects or abstract pieces, the color is her main focus. Jill believes colors, just like smells, or sounds (as in music) can evoke emotional reactions.
