Original painting in acrylic on canvas paper.
"I'm concerned with femininity, the representation of women and the capturing of the emotional moment. My muted tones speak of quiet reflective times - a momentary respite in our busy lives."
Invited Artist - What Artists Like
Almost exclusively portraying the female form, Julia Blackshaw aims to capture a moment of calm in her paintings, be it of a solitary hour or a figure deep in a dream. With an outline not dissimilar in approach to Alex Katz, Blackshaw gives us a limited backdrop, employing total focus on the women before us. As the viewer, we observe from afar, studying the figures that seem lost in their own world.
