Layer upon layer of oil and acrylic, swirls and curls dripping squares, radiant amoebas, splashes of energy and a rush of color, subtle and lyrical portrayals of the heaven ad the earth and the sea, Jill Krutick's paintings present a 21st Century iteration of Abstract Expressionism.
Jill Krutick has been a full-time artists since 2010, yet she has already garnered six museum exhibitions on two continents including four solo shows.
Krutick is a most unusual, even radical, artist in that she is equally analytical and creative. She was a media executive and a top ranked equity analyst on Wall Street. Prior to leaving the corporate world and committing to her art practice full time, she was Fortune Magazine's #1 Entertainment Analyst in 2001.
The energy, talent and perception that created success in the business world have refocused on mark making hat is rhapsodic and conversational, expressing her passion for the environment and visionary imagination.
Along with being a master colorist, employing hues that can be supersaturated or pastel, Jill Krutick is fervent in her use of texture, As a pianist/artist, some of Krutick's paintings are operas, some are pop songs, and some are sheer jazz, but all are memorable and anything but atonal.
Her work is in private and public collections as well as the permanent collections of several museums including the Coral Springs Museum of Art, in Coral Springs, Florida; Yellowstone Museum of Art, in Billings, Montana; The Longwood Center for the Visual Arts in Farmville, Virginia; and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
Krutick paints in her Westchester, New York studio with her Old English sheepdogs, rocket, Violet and Rocket's son, Buzz.
