When You Come to a Fork in the Road, abstract Paintings by Julie Bloom

     The Venue Fine Art & Gifts is pleased to host the exhibition and sale of abstract paintings by Julie Bloom, for October’s First Friday Gallery Walk and as our feature Artist for October. 

     Julie Bloom’s transformation from accomplished psychotherapist to accomplished abstract artist is, for her, like passing through a “fork in the Road”.  Her sensitivity to emotional states, language, spoken and unspoken, and the way the body expresses what words cannot, are elemental to both creative processes. Her paintings in this exhibit reflect her joyous exploration of different kinds of abstractions and her movement through several artistic “forks” along her artistic journey.

 

     All of Julie’s paintings in this exhibit are cold wax and oil, a unique process that is both additive and reductive.  They are made up of many layers creating texture and depth. They often have a matte finish but sometimes glossy. All are colorful, warm, and inviting.

     Join us at The Venue on This Friday, October 4^th, beginning at 5:00 pm. for Gallery Walk, to meet Julie and enjoy her extraordinary art.
