whimsical – creative – innovative – random - youthful – imaginative – vibrant
With her artwork, Jill Connor aims to evoke a sense of childlike whimsy through the use of bright colors, animals and unique situations. Jill enjoys working in multiple media forms to encourage the viewer to see each piece as an example of carefree and youthful creativity.
When not creating, Jill can either be found working with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers as a commercial electrician or hanging out with her husband and young son. Jill has a Bachelors of Science in Art Education from Miami University and is an active member of The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators and Americans for the Arts, an arts advocacy organization.
“I believe that children are wise beyond their years and deserve respect and recognition for everything that they do and for who they are as an individual. Art belongs in our schools and in our communities.”
