About the Artist
Julia Einstein is thrilled to call the vibrant city of Raleigh home after recently moving here from New England. This artist makes paintings described, “as if walking into a garden room” with an artist’s eye on nature in vivid compositions, elegant arrangements, and painterly surfaces. She is an artist and teacher who works to create a connection for interpreting --between maker and viewer. Her studio interest is in the painter’s world, the painted surface, color, and representing the inspired view. She says, “I put onto canvas what I love, the way light enters a space, how color changes from inside to outside. Flowers with an elegance of line, natural rather than cultivated, inspire me to paint from life. My studio is filled with flower portraits gathered, posed and painted. I love that quick capture of a flower's gesture & bouquets with a bit of wildness, arranged for dramatic effect.” For more info: www.juliaeinstein.com
