LINCOLNVILLE BEACH —  Summer Stonington resident Jill Hoy’s artwork is on display at Lincolnville Fine Art Gallery.  Hoy considers the quality of light to be an important element of her work.  "The light in Maine is crystal clear, with a sharp-edged clarity and a gem-like quality.  I often work in the morning or late afternoon when these qualities are especially strong." 

 

Hoy earned a BFA from the University of California and attended the New Your Academy of Art in New York.  She divides her time between Somerville, Massachusetts and Stonington where she paints local scenes.
