Award-winning color media artist.
The song of the land is in my bones and in my heart. It seeps into everything. There is magic in that, gentle and wild. It's this unseen forces that I seek to understand and share in paint.
The natural world is the start point of every painting I create.
I study light. I'm always moved by the way light and shadow pass through a place.
Julia O’Reilly’s sunsets are seen through an Oregon of stillness, brilliant with a hyper color other artists only dream of. Obtaining it is not easy.
