About the Artist

Brigit Hill graduated with BA (Hons) Fine Art at the University of West England (formerly Bristol Polytechnic) in 1989.  She is primarily a watercolour artist but has recently reignited her love of oil painting and discovered new ways of working during printmaking classes.  From the very start, she has been interested in still lifes, either using patterned pottery or flowers as a starting point, using vibrant, cheerful colours to create paintings and prints.

In the past, she has exhibited in group exhibitions at Flying Colours Gallery, Open Eye Gallery and with Scottish Contemporary Art at Phillips Auction House in Edinburgh.  She has also organised solo exhibitions in residential spaces in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London.  Whilst in Wokingham, she has received commissions for her colourful work.

“Brigit Hill bravely tackles the pure watercolour medium head on in some very busy and well composed still lifes.”  The Scotsman, 1992.
