Playing on Another Level, Abstract Painting

2023

Artist Comments
An abstract artwork unfolds with movement and emotion, guided by a soft palette of blues, whites, and blacks that balance tranquility and strength. Layered brushstrokes intertwine with spontaneous scribbles, adding depth and character. Dark, concentrated areas contrast with lighter, ethereal sections.

About the Artist
Julie Weaverling’s abstract paintings are organic yet deliberate. She approaches her work with a well-developed idea, then begins applying paint. Julie experiments with transparent and opaque layers that metaphorically represent the human condition. She focuses on the idea of compartmentalizing: humans separate their work from their secrets, their friends from their traumas, creating many layers to the self. “What is hidden is sometimes more revealing than what is seen,” Julie says. Through the scraping and layering of color, the artist asks the viewer to consider what lies underneath.
