Julia loves depicting the beauty and detail of nature in watercolour and is particularly drawn to specimens that are less than perfect, especially leaves and seed heads.
She has been painting botanical watercolours since 1998 when she joined an adult education class in South London. Julia now tutors classes in Bath as well as exhibiting regularly. She has exhibited internationally, has work in collections worldwide and has received awards for her paintings.
