Finding a wistful beauty in the everyday, Hilary J. England’s emotionally charged
paintings at once contemplate and celebrate the seemingly mundane moments in life. Sunlight
floods England’s landscapes and figurative compositions as she paints in oils with an
expressively flowing mark. She illuminates her subjects with a sensitive honesty, infusing her
works with hope and healing. Returning often to the sea for inspiration, there’s a quiet
peace in her brushstrokes, a feeling of reflection and rebirth as the world goes on, as
eternal as the tides. This almost meditative aspect is connected to a powerful message –
following a near fatal accident, England found that she returned to her art reinvigorated with
purpose and aware of the hope and support she could give her models and her audience through
her work.
Born in Brooklyn, NY and raised on the Staten Island shore, Hilary J. England now lives and
works outside the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania where she has converted a barn into her
private studio.
