I'm Jill Florence Brooks.

​

I'm an artist, illustrator, and storyteller based in Vermont. I use art as a tool to deepen my sense of place, to examine my relationships with humans and more-than-humans, and to embrace vulnerability. My background is in geography and farming. I'm interested in a future world with more reciprocity between land and people, which tends to make its way into my work.

 

I'm a self-taught artist and enjoy using a wide variety of mediums including gouache, watercolor, colored pencil, wax pastel, and digital illustration. I'm often inspired by children's books, my own childhood memories, and playful visual narratives. 

​

When I'm not making art I'm usually cooking, camping, reading sci-fi, journaling, or kissing my dog Loon.
