About JoolsArt
Julie Burnett-Kirk
I began exploring painting in my fifties. I started with various watercolour classes and teachers, from whom I have learnt so much.
More recently I had a brief foray into acrylics, where I enjoyed the brightness of colour and freedom of expression.
In the last couple of years during lockdown, I have explored painting using pastels and discovered a whole new world that has opened up for me with my art.
Many of my themes are reflective and contemplative with a particular focus on the landscape of Sussex where I live. I am passionate about creating that sense of place and especially the stillness, light and peace to be found in the middle of the woods, near the sea or out on the Downs or the Moors.
I particularly enjoy being able to work with you on commissions using your photographs of those places that hold special memories for you.
Contact me for commissions or sales on my contact page.
