Julie Vasquez

“From an early age, I had a deep love for art, as it allowed me to escape from reality and foster my vivid imagination to the fullest, which became the foundation of my artistic journey. In my work, I use the power of color as a medium of expression and create art to reflect on my life experiences. Whether the colors are vibrant or soft, they serve as a reflection of the emotions or feelings experienced through the creative process. Art plays an important role in my life as it acts as a way for me to celebrate the human experience. As an artist I believe that art is more than visual expression; it is an exploration of what it means to experience life and to connect with the world around us.”
