Julie Hixson - Artist
About
I find painting one of the most relaxing and therapeutic things in life. Having taken a break from painting to concentrate on family life, returning to the paint brushes has inspired me to explore the coastline and countryside and hope I’ve done it justice in capturing some of it’s natural beauty in my recent work.
Majority of my work is either landscape or wildlife. I love to work with oil on canvas especially with seascapes which I believe helps capture the mood and moment with vibrant colours.
I have prints of these original paintings available if you wish to buy one.
Check out my Instagram Account for more details of what I am doing and please contact me on the email address if you would like to buy any of these paintings or a private commission.
Thank You!
