Julia Ramsay - 2022

An experienced local artist with a Fine Art degree, and a qualified teacher of Art at secondary level, Julia is driven by vibrant colours and the vast possibilities in textures and landscapes, encapsulated in oils. On her many dog walks in the local area, Julia is constantly inspired by the simplicity in nature and everyday surroundings.

Quite often the aim of the paintings is not to be too descriptive of a recognisable particular place but more about the enjoyment of seeing the artist's hand. The only exception to that is when Julia has undertaken many compositions from the Swiss mountains to the Balearic seas but still with her recognisable style. She works from her garden studio in Harpenden as well as on location.
