Jill Berry
Jill K. Berry has been a graphic designer and painter for 27 years, after an education in design and graduate studies in art in Florence, Italy. She began making handmade books in 1997 in a class she took by accident, and has been addicted ever since. Her work is content driven with an emphasis on color and text, and is often centered on social issues. Her handmade books are in the permanent collections of the Newberry Library in Chicago and the Denver Public Library. Her paintings and artists’ books have been shown in national invitational and juried shows and can be found in public and private collections across the country. She lives in Superior, Colorado with her husband and two kids, who also make books.
