Julie Loved a Nude Beach, Seagull Fine Art Print
Julie Loved a Nude Beach, Seagull Fine Art Print
Julie. Oh, Julie. She’s a hoot. She’s the friend who will skinny-dip at midnight with her friends on a trip. I think she told me she was on “Gulls Gone Wild” in the early 90s. Julie doesn’t mind being loud and proud and is always happy to take up space. She is happy with her body and with who she is…life is short! Everyone likes Julie and wants to be her friend…and she is SUCH a good friend. Julie reminds us to accept ourselves as we are and to live life to the fullest. She also reminds us that it’s ok to be silly sometimes; life is too short to worry about every little thing.

The full skinny:
These aren't mass-produced prints. They're faithful reproductions of my originals, printed on archival-quality canvas and stretched over 1.25" solid pine stretcher bars for a rich, dimensional feel. Then they're mounted inside an elegant floating frame made from FSC Certified, locally sourced North American poplar wood — so your art looks like it's floating, sleek and gallery-ready right out of the box.
In my vibrant paintings, everyday birds; seagulls, bluebirds, parrots, and more, emerge from bold, saturated fields of color and gestural mark-making, each adorned with a delicate glowing crown icon that serves as a secular halo. These crowns declare that every creature, no matter how ordinary or overlooked, is inherently sacred and worthy of reverence. The birds become powerful metaphors for women: resilient, silly, expressive, sometimes chaotic, yet undeniably valuable in their full, unapologetic existence. Through layers of dripping paint, scribbled lines, and joyful color, my work invites viewers to recognize their own innate holiness; not earned through perfection or conformity, but simply because they are. In a world that often demands we shrink or silence ourselves, these crowned birds stand as enthusiastic reminders to embrace our worth, raise our voices, and claim the space we deserve.
