Jill Basham paints throughout
the United States, but she
calls the Eastern Shore of
the Chesapeake Bay home.
Primarily a landscape oil
painter, Basham is drawn
to atmosphere and mood.
She says, “I strive to get my
paintings to a point in which
I truly feel the place I have
painted, and my hope is
that others do as well. Each
painting is an experiment that
is unfolding; the truly moving
pieces are the ones that
I pushed a bit.”
Presently, Basham is
working on multiple series
including Explorations
in Green, working to find
answers to the challenges
presented when using the
color green. Her Reef series
paintings are focused on
her experiences snorkeling
among the coral reefs.
Finally, Basham is working
on a collaborative series
that will ultimately be a
large body of work, and will
be unveiled prior to the
spring of 2020 as part of
an upcoming two-person
show at Principle Gallery in
Alexandria, Virginia.
Along with PrincipleGallery, Basham is
represented by Reinert Fine
Art in Charleston, South
Carolina; Crown Gallery
in Blowing Rock, North
Carolina; South Street Art
