About the Author

Phoenix artist Julie Gilbert Pollard paints in oils and watercolors in a fluid, painterly manner. Her painting style, while representational, is colored with her own personal concept of reality and a unique approach to color and light. She has taught classes since 1985, and currently teaches at the Scottsdale Artists' School, Shemer Art Center and Cynthia's Art Asylum in the greater Phoenix area, as well as the Highland Valley Studios in California, Dillman's Creative Arts Foundation in Wisconsin and La Romita School of Art in Umbria, Italy.
