About Julia Preston

 
 
  • Biography
    Painting is my expressive process and my style is fairly loose, using brushstrokes and semi-mixed colours to create interest. I'm inspired by the natural world and usually work on landscapes and abstracts. Many of my landscapes are of local moorland scenery in Lancashire, where I am now based- though I am also fond of Alpine mountains, having worked a few years in ski resorts in France.

    Please get in touch with any questions and landscape/abstract commission ideas.
    Shipping quotes for Europe on request.
