Phoenix artist, Julie Gilbert Pollard, paints in oil and watercolor in a fluid, painterly manner. Her painting style, while representational, is colored with her own personal concept of reality… “The eye may see as a camera ‘sees’, but the mind’s eye sees an altered, imagined image, what it wants and hopes to see. It’s that illusive image I try to express in my paintings. This amazing world of ours is often a mysterious, sometimes frightening, place, but is filled with scenes and subjects that excite my eye and imagination!”
