Artist Statement:
Julia Brooks' current
paintings are predominantly
based on still-life scenes,
with a focus on colour and
light. As a young painter, she
is still developing her style
and technique, however, her
interest in rendering tone is
a key feature of her work.
This is expressed through
planes of gradiated, solid
colour.
“Before i begin a painting, i
spend some time looking
closely at the subjects i have
chosen to depict, paying
particular attention to how
the light plays across their
surfaces. I then mix up a
series of similar hues with a
limited range of colours and
decide on a rough colour
scheme. This scheme evolves as
i paint and is complete only
when all of the tones and
colours are balanced together.
