Hannah with Seven Butterflies
Jill Hooper
Charcoal, chalk, and watercolor on toned paper. Handmade French mat.

About the Artist
Jill Hooper works between Charleston and London, her practice shaped by years of study in the European atelier tradition, including time in Florence and France under masters of contemporary realism such as D. Jeffrey Mims and Charles Cecil. Her practice is grounded in sustained study—of the figure, of still life, of the discipline of looking itself. She works exclusively from life and natural light, using sight‑size observation, tonal modeling, and hand-mixed pigments.

Artist Statement
Jill Hooper
"When I think of Wentworth (Blake’s beautiful, marvelous creation), I think of the playful and inspiring objects full of wonderment, where even the most practical items inspire. It reminds me of Proust’s observations of Chardin’s paintings. “We have learned from Chardin that a pear is as living as a woman, that an ordinary piece of pottery is as beautiful as a precious stone". In essence, even a plate, a knife, a crumb are all beautiful and curious.
With Installation of Curiosities, I've decided to build on that, by adding something unexpected that makes me smile. Let’s be playful—I’m letting the universe take the reins in the studio and in life, and trusting the outcome. I need joy. I need authenticity. I’m finding my quyss.
Then again, aren't we all?"
