Julie Clifford Art: A Devon Artist

Is a mixed media painter based in Devon, where she creates dramatic landscapes. Her art captures the magic of nature through vibrant images, featuring dramatic skies, wildflowers, and a dreamlike quality. Colour plays a central role in her work. Indeed, her paintings are full of burning clouds, moody storms, and colours that seem to drip off the canvas in layers of wildflowers.

Spontaneous Techniques

Julie employs a variety of unconventional methods to apply paint, including dribbling, splattering, and dropping it onto the canvas. Sponges, rags, old sauce bottles, and even her hands serve as tools in her artistic process. The result is spontaneous and gestural. Moreover, accidental splatters transform into flower buds and fields moving in the wind.

Subtle Details

Hints of fine glitters are applied through the many layers that make up the final image. This allows the artwork to change as the light shifts throughout the day.

Education and Future

Julie graduated with a degree in Fine Art in 2012 after studying at Plymouth University. Now, she is returning this year to study for a PGCE to become a Secondary School Art Teacher, sharing her passions with the next generation of artists.
