Artist Statement: My piano seems to have its own unique identity. It has a history, as shown on a plaque and the maker's label. I will keep these and the piano's hardware in tact. At this point, I plan to paint trees underneath the keys, festive feet dancing along the keys, clouds, and colors in rhythm with one another. I would also like to paint in a manner which highlights the details in the piano and, hopefully, allows it to shine.
Currently, Julia is a watercolor artist with particular interest in nature and its lessons and in using recycled materials in artwork. Previously, she started and painted in a Decorative Painting business and has also enjoyed teaching Furniture Painting to adults. She hopes to enhance others’ lives through art and the creative process. With this piano, she envisions playing and looking and maybe singing, all to bring people together.
