| BIO |
 Since graduating with a BFA from Montserrat College of Art in 1992, Jill
Stasium has rarely passed a day without painting. “For me, creativity is my
life and it totally dominates every moment.” This is evident in the pieces
she has on display in galleries throughout America and Europe.
Her commitment to the Artist’s life and the expressionist style - here bold
strokes and vibrant palette - display a vital artist with a spark and a joy
of life that is infectious. “Whatever is in my mind is what hits the
canvas.”
What hits her mind is boxing (she’s a tough southpaw), her two cats, but
most of all her life in New York City, which she says is the most inspiring
place she has ever been.
Jill Stasium’s desire to have a more immediate response from the public has
led her to the sidewalks of NYC. Here, on the corner of Prince and West
Broadway, she displays her work on weekends. “I draw tremendous energy from
the people and the streets,” she says. I wouldn’t ever want to leave
behind. |
