A romanticised and calming landscape painted in thin oil glazes. The painting has a surrealist element to it although Julia is an expressionist artist. What is being expressed is a notion of tranquility and an inner state of being at one with oneself. Rogers called this 'self actualisation', which is not an American Dream kind of actualisation but a synchrony between one's ideal and actual self. The jades and pinks are colours which represent a healed mind.

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

My art is primarily organic abstraction, often portraying surreal and softened landscapes. A dream or nebulous quality marks both transitions and compositions. This is derived from a mode of life, which is rooted in inner stillness. I live in South West France, surrounded by tranquil forests. That quietness of being is what I strive for in my studio. I paint without distraction, so that I can fully connect with what I am creating. The more I can remove myself from the process, the better the work. I only paint in oils as they give such wonderful luminosity and I prefer large scale pieces for freedom of mind.
