Jill Morton is an abstract expressionist artist. She grew up in Australia and left there in her twenties to pursue travel and art. Jill studied clay in Europe and textiles in Asia. Later she ended up pursuing an art education in the U.S.
According to Morton, "My painting is an intuitive journey to a much happier and energized self. As I paint I let go to connect with my creative pulse. On the canvas I am able to move freely as I play with color, mark-making and texture, using acrylics and drawing materials. What comes out is raw, honest and abstract—and is a response to experiences with people, nature, or places. I want to share my colorful paintings with the world to enliven and create joy."

She resides in Connecticut. She has exhibited in New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut. Her works reside in private collections across the U.S.
