Jill Keller-Peters lives in the northern California wine country with her husband, Josef Keller, a chef and restaurateur. Jill creates paintings that reflect light, color and atmosphere. Her work conveys an affirmation of the beauty, quiet strength and character of this sweet earth.
The artist uses a unique process of layering color to depict luminosity. Jill perfects her technique out in the field, on the road and in her studio. Other artists describe her approach as
"refined and rhythmic, with visual depth." Ms. Keller-Peters’ work has received recognition both locally and nationally.

Jill has a solid background in photography. She shared a partnership in a premiere portrait studio in Marin County for over twenty years. When her love for design and painting began to emerge, she followed that path to more fully manifest her inner world:
a world of light and color.
Inspiring others to see the subtle delicacies in a landscape, the unexpected changes in light, and the mood of the air on a particular day is a consequence that the artist finds most fulfilling about her work.

An ongoing and ever-changing exhibit of Ms. Keller-Peters’ work can
be viewed at
The Jill Keller-Peters Gallery at Josef’s Restaurant in
Santa Rosa.
