The Artist
Julia has been living and breathing drawing and painting ever since her university days in Technical Theatre at Dalhousie University. She worked briefly at Neptune Theatre in Halifax but quickly realized her real passion was painting.
As time and funds allow Julia travels off Island to learn more about art making from experts in their field, such as in watercolor painting and printmaking.
“Art is Essential.”
– Julia Purcell
