‘Water Gardens’ features abstract water landscapes by Pittsburg Artist Jill Hackney.

Hackney explores the interplay of reflected light and atmosphere in her art. Known for her still lifes and landscapes, Hackney captures the impact of light on her subjects through her distinctive technique of layering vertical and linear strokes. Each painting is approached with a sense of nostalgia. The end effect is a union of the senses, which awakens feelings of joy, serenity, and peace.

“Works shimmer and vibrate, they offer a dream-like ethereal visual experience that draws the eye across the canvas. They explore the complexity of reflected light and how it shapes.”
