About

Fillmore's intricate paintings, each requiring a month to complete, serve as autobiographical metaphors. Through her art, she seeks to initiate conversations about mental health, addressing its associated stigmas and challenges. Her works convey the beauty found within imperfection and suggest that childhood adversities can foster personal growth.
Speaking about her creative process, Fillmore explains, “I paint the things I do partially as a way to take the parts of my past that once made me feel isolated and turn them into opportunities to connect.” Her work transforms personal memories and experiences into images that feel open, familiar, and emotionally accessible, allowing viewers to find their own points of connection within each painting.
Fillmore is currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she continues to develop her distinctive approach to contemporary figurative painting. Her artwork has been exhibited in galleries and exhibitions across the United States, reaching collectors and audiences nationwide.
