Jill Pottle
"Silver Pot I", contemporary, still life, retro, acrylic, oil painting

2014

About the Item

Jill Pottle’s still life titled “Silver Pot I” is part of an ongoing series titled “Epic Still Life” and it can be sold with or without its partner, “Silver Pot II.” Pottle paints depictions of ordinary objects that may be found in our homes. In this 36 X 24 inch oil on stretched canvas with an acrylic base coat, her delight in painting this retro object is evident, and her energetic application of paint, use of stripes and high chroma invite your eye to move around the canvas. The canvas edge is one and half inches wide and painted, ready to hang by itself or with its partner. Known for her complicated and engaging still life and loose plein air work, Jill Pottle is a New Realist painter from Worcester County. Her aim is to capture movement and emotional qualities in her canvases. In her still life paintings, she most often uses retro or well-worn ordinary objects that focus attention on life in our contemporary world. In her landscapes, she freezes a moment in time to exemplify the power of the life force in nature. Rich brush work and high chroma characterize her fluid painterly style in both areas of subject matter. The play of light on different surfaces and the layering of paint create depth and resonance in her work. Pottle is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
