Jill McGannon completed her BFA and MFA in Drawing and Painting from the University of Georgia in 1985 and 1988, and has made a living as an artist since then. After graduating, she studied with Gregg Kreutz, David Leffel, Terry Miura, Marc Hanson, and others. Her work can be seen at Mason Fine Art in Atlanta, Georgia and Addington Gallery in Chicago, Illinois. She paints realistic landscape, figure and still life paintings in oils, preferring to work from life whenever possible. Her favorite destinations for plein air landscape painting include the Georgia coast and mountains, the mountains of North Carolina, and the Italian countryside. The smaller plein air works are often used as references to paint larger paintings in the studio. Jill lives in the Atlanta area. For Jill’s show schedule, please sign the email list. As of September of 2019, Jill will be teaching painting at Johns Creek Arts Center, www.johnscreekarts.org for more information.
