Frequently asked question: What makes Julia's art unique?

Here's my list of the top 10 unique qualities of my artwork:

 

  • Born in moments of transformation, my artwork tells a story. Fusing bold expressions, cosmic themes, and visual textures. Vivid contrasts create a hypnotic interplay of energy and movement.

 

  • I use swirling patterns, dynamic transitions of colour and the tension between the light and the dark to convey emotion, evoke memories, and transport viewers to another world.

 

  • My artwork takes the viewer on a tactile journey, capturing a moment, a feeling, a concept, or an idea that speaks to the soul.

 

  • I use mixed media to transform the canvas into multi-dimentional landscapes, adding texture and depth to my artwork.

 

  • My use of crystalline elements, as well as metallic and iridescent tones in my artwork creates a sense of raw beauty, geological formations and cosmic wonder.

 

  • There are two sides - (or as I call it) an active duality to my artwork:
  1. Daylightshows off intricate details, inviting veiwers to explore the organic mystique of each piece.
  2. UV light - transforms my artwork into an electric, glowing universe, a high-contrast display of neon colours - against dark backdrops.
  3. The active duality - creates an interactive experience, making my artwork not just a painting, but a fully immersive creation. 

   

  • layer and then seal all of my work with Epoxy Resin, which ensures lasting shine and protection over time, while adding to the layers of depth under the glass-like surface of each piece. 

 

  • build each layer with intention. Each detail contributes to the overall narrative of the piece, infusing storytelling into my art through abstract expressionism.

✨ Side note:

Enthralled with the art of storytelling since a young age, my intrigue in expression has only become more pronounced as I've gained life experience. Having been inclined towards the visual arts throughout my entire life, has also led to my Diploma in Acting for Film and Televison from Vancouver Film School and my afinity for craftmanship as a whole. 

Creatively yours,

Frequently asked question: Does the Artist (Julia) do commission artwork?

Yes!
I do Custom Commissions.

Custom Commission Services

Choosing original artwork is a personal investment, and I believe that experience should be just as meaningful as the artwork itself..

I offer complimentary consultations, because I also believe, that the best experience is one where there are no questions left unanswered and we are both on the same page right from the start. It's important for us to go over the details together and make sure we are both in the know and confident to proceed. In order for me to gauge what you are interested in for your custom piece, I'll ask you some questions that will guide me in the process to make sure that everything turns out 100% for you. 

- We will discuss:

  • Your space 
  • Your preferred colour palette
  •  Your preferences on style ( For example: if you are leaning towards more ethereal or bold in standard light etc. ) 
  • The hidden layer - You decide what stay's hidden by day to be revealed in UV light. ( For example: a subtle hidden message or secret constellation etc.)

- I will define 'Additional Mixed Media':

  • I'll explain what the term 'mixed media' means
  • I'll give you an idea of what type of mixed media add-on’s are available, and lay out what's included with the base price and go over any special requests you may have.

- We cover canvas sizes and pricing:

  • You'll recieve a list of canvas sizes that are currently available
  • If you are interested in a size that I don't have - I can special order one in for you.
  • I'll let you know how pricing works - explain what the difference between the Base Price and the Total Price is, how the initial Deposit works & so on!

- I will give you an estimate on creation and delivery time

- The Consultation time usually lasts 15 mins:

  • However, we can go for longer if needed, it's not a set time.

- After the initial consultation, you should have a good understanding of everything there is to know about my commission services and if you would like to proceed with a custom piece. There will be no rush in making a decision.

  •  I want you to be confident moving forward in your decision to commission my artwork - so in order to find out all there is to know, let's start with your complimentary consultation!
  • To claim your complimentary consultation, you can either fill out my contact form (found near the bottom of this page) or you can Email: info@juliavaughanart.com and I will get back to you with some possible times and send you a 'Zoom meeting link', once we confirm.

Creatively yours,

 

Julia

Frequently asked question: How should I care for my UV light reactive artwork?

Excellent question!

To maintain the vibrancy and longevity of your 'UV light reactive' artwork, follow these simple steps:

 

  • Display it in a location away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

 

  • Regularly dust the surface with a soft, dry cloth, and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

 

  • If your artwork ever needs a good cleaning, a spritz of non-abrasive glass cleaner and a soft dry cloth is all you need for an effective cleaning. Lightly spray the dry cloth, then using the cloth in a circular motion, wipe your artwork clean.

 

  • When using UV light to enhance the glow effect, ensure the light source is appropriate and does not emit excessive heat.

Frequently asked question: Can I visit your studio to view artworks in person?

- Currently, I operate primarily online and do not have a physical studio open for visits. However, I provide detailed images and descriptions of each piece on their respective pages through my art shop/website - to help you make the most informed decisions as possible. 

* You can often find me at outdoor markets and festivals, sharing my work in person. I post upcoming event details on my website and in my newsletter — I’d love to see you there. *
