Based in Los Angeles, California, Jillian Evelyn is a highly sought after American artist whose work explores the intricate relationship between physical space and the internal psyche. Born and raised in Michigan, she initially cultivated her technical skills through a rigorous education at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit. It was during her time in this industrial hub that she began to refine her focus on the human form, eventually transitioning from a career in commercial footwear design to a full time pursuit of fine art. Her evolution as a creator is marked by a transition from graphic, flat compositions to increasingly complex explorations of anatomy and tension.

Collectors within the limited edition print and poster community frequently hunt for her work due to her signature stylistic motif involving astronauts. Jillian Evelyn integrates an astronaut or a space suit element into every single piece of art she creates. This consistent inclusion serves as a metaphor for isolation, protection, and the barrier between the self and the external world. By placing these figures in domestic or surreal settings, she highlights a profound sense of "otherness" that resonates with enthusiasts of figurative surrealism. Her ability to blend high concept themes with a vibrant, illustrative aesthetic has made her a staple in the modern gallery circuit.

Significant accomplishments in her career include her inclusion in high profile group exhibitions and solo showcases that have garnered international attention. One of her most notable early career milestones was her participation in the pervasive Juxtapoz Clubhouse during Art Basel Miami, an event that frequently dictates trends within the collector market. Her work has been featured at The Hole NYC, a gallery known for championing innovative figurative artists. Furthermore, her solo exhibition titled "Feelings are hard" at Chandran Gallery in San Francisco solidified her status as a premier talent in the world of collected editions. These exhibitions are critical for collectors to track, as they often correlate with the appreciation and rarity of her limited screen prints and original wood paintings.

The demand for her posters and prints remains high as shown in the recent Serio Press archive sales where Jillian's art prints were the first to be sold out. because of her unique process, which often involves hand painted wooden cutouts that translate beautifully into high quality lithographs and screen prints. Her work is frequently showcased at Hashimoto Contemporary, where her prints often sell out within minutes of release. By maintaining a cohesive visual language while constantly pushing the boundaries of figurative art, she has established a permanent footprint in the hearts of poster collectors worldwide.
