Some of you may have heard of Jill Dryer already, but for those of you who haven't, well.. Here you go!

Following a 15 year career in marketing (and 7 years at Architectural Digest), Jill decided to finally do what she loved: painting. Her "Design Meets Nature" series has received loads of attention and she has gone on to write and illustrate a children's book, provide Imagination workshops for parents and kids, and even started an Etsy shop to sell her wonderful creations.

I can't get enough of her paintings! So imaginative and full of humor! My favorite piece is the "Calderooster". If you could pick any painting to add to your own collection, which one would you choose?
