Grapes on the Vine

Summer 2009 Jill Louise Campbell Fine Art 16 new paintings in four co!ections Dear Friends, This summer Jill is adding some beautiful new pantings to her Italy, France and Salt Spring Island Collections. Jill has been painting in a new narrow format, capturing the winding pathways in Europe and fields filled with ripe olives and grapes on the vine. We invite you to visit the gallery and

A NOTE FROM JILL……

I have had wonderful painting retreats in 2009 plunging into my watercolours as I reminisced on past and recent travels to France and Italy. Taking on a dream like quality, and being serenaded by Andreas Boce!i my colour palette danced and dazzled. "Grapes on the Vine" took me meandering into a vineyard snug to hamlet homes amidst bri!iant fields, lavender arch to sky. …….Ji!

New to the France Co!ection title: I Have a Dream 1 (left) “I hum and paint and delve into a kaleidoscope of gilt edged fields, mosaic patterns float and settle, as I scurry along to a sunny village with 2 moons hung kissing the horizon. Draping willows texture the sky like a curtain rising to the morn.” title: I Have a Dream II (right) “...my wandering not complete, I reach for more paper to keep the dream alive. Settling into my reverie, this fairy tale land unfolds a castle view.”

New to the France Co!ection title: Joie de Vivre "I am intrigued by old, crumbled and worn. Of places lived in, used and loved. Piles of homes built leaning together over centuries. Stairs to where? Arches and open french doors. I smell the perfume of flowers, cooking, and old stones. I hear laughter, music...a violin...steps on cobbled lanes. I love this life.”

New to the France Co!ection title: Firefly Light (left) Mellow warmth of aged roof tops sing in harmony with the evening light show of thousands of fireflies. The luminescence sparkles to join a celestial heaven and sigh as night envelopes the village. title: Cicada Sings (right) Open the gates by the light of the moon, a strangely comforting sound accompanies the walk home. Dishes done, a last nod to the day before shuttering up for the night, laundry to fold ...then all settle in to listen the cicadas sing.

New to the France Co!ection title: Take Me Back to France Wistful....and yet frankly deliciously grateful for my many visits to so many beautiful places in France. I allow the memories to flood over me and begin to paint. Curiously the paint takes shape, backyards and house facades viewed from a floating space. Perspective glides across the roof tops and mimics the lines to fields of lavender. Have I been here before? Take me back to France to see.

Grapes on the Vine

New paintings in the Italy Co!ection title: Grapes on the Vine "Grapes on the Vine" took me meandering into a vineyard snug to hamlet homes amidst brilliant fields, lavender arch to sky. title: Ripe Olives Salty, rich, earthy, I think Nicoise are my favourite. I dream of owning an olive grove, not large, just a few wise old trees, gnarled and pruned. I would paint under my olive trees and dream of picking them just ripe for their gold oil and keep a pot of brine filled with my purple/black favourites.

Salt Spring Island Co!ection title: Spinnakers Up: A peek a boo view from Madrona Bay to the start of The Race Round SSI. Bright colours just set for wind to catch. A snug cottage gazes on near Goat Island. This is a paradise for boaters and nature lovers!

title: Madronna Bay on Salt Spring Island A view south west to Churchill Beach and distant village of Ganges on Salt Spring Island, it's panorama of gentle west coast unfolds. A lap of ocean, glisten of arbutus leaves blowing in the breeze, a coastline unfolds that holds sweet surprises to a kayaker. Seals surface stare and blink, a sweep of Canada Geese land close by, eagles soar and head home to Goat Island, a few swans drift in a quiet cove. Embraced by nature I am content.

New to the France Co!ection title: Sweet Remembrances A nostalgic view of Beaumont Du Ventoux a tiny hamlet in Provence, France. We spent a year, I painted our children went to school in a one room school house. For centuries these families framed the land, grapes, and fruit trees.

New to the Salt Spring Co!ection title: Fulford Valley Swept away as in a dream this valley view to Mount Maxwell and and vineyards below. I have walked some of this land and discovered hidden waterfalls and creeks that spill water and sweet music.

New to the Salt Spring Co!ection title: Ruckle Sheep Ruckle Park was home to the Ruckle Family for generations now a Provencial Park the legacy of tended sheep and apple trees lives on. Layered photographs with water colour oil and gouache mimic the layers of love and devotion to this heritage Farm.

New to the India Co!ection title: Maharaja Dreams The veiled past of purdah, whispers secrets some shared. Poetry, sweet lovers of art and music are reflected in the graceful lines of Indo Persian architecture. Windows delicately framed in carved stone, cenotaph stands sentry in nocturnal light. An enchanted dream flowers.

New to the Like Minds Co!ection title: Water Chi My imaginings sometimes reach to the "other world" of nocturnal dreams. An especially vivid recollection begged to be painted as fish and water life greeted me in celebration as I swam in their midst. I toasted my aliveness with a cup of green tea, abundance flowed.

New to the American SouthWest Co!ection title: Sitting in a Row A blue door opens welcoming a visit, country garden carefree as the life style, life is simple and abundant.

1 800 474-6705 A little history

On the Gallery We opened our first gallery in Ganges on Salt Spring Island in 1992. Since then we have moved a few times - increasing to the largest Gallery in town at one point and now likely the smallest. We are now really trying to work less and play more. Our plan is to open the gallery in the summer only… and then sail and travel the rest of the year. See Jill’s blog for the latest news and travel plans Jill…. +om Duart’s perspective…… Jill has painted all her life but it is only the past 20 years that she has really taken a professional focus. I have always contended her inspiration came from me but honestly I have no idea how she brings her images together - I see the same scenes when we travel and yet her interpretations are truly breathtaking …. That is the magic of her art. She can sit with a blank canvas and a few photos and memories and just start in. I have done a bit of video to capture her thoughts in action and I will try to get some of these on the website. Duart... The days of Bank Marketing seem like ancient history. For the past 20 years I have become a self taught art publisher. I have helped craft Jill’s paintings into formats of interest to the public in a way that might allow us to make a living out of art in Canada. I am pleased to say it continues to be an ever changing and wonderful journey. We both now look forward to a lighter work load and more travel and down time. I travel with my computer so expect to update the website to keep everyone apprised of Jill’s new paintings and plans. …...Duart
