 Julie Houck
Julie Houck is a painter of the effects of light and atmosphere in the landscape. "I am primarily interested in the transmission of light in my paintings." Julie's most recent series focus on plein air portraits of people. Never derived from photographs, these slice of life images capture moments in time en plein air.
Following a successful 16-year career as a professional photographer, where her specialty was photographing people on location, Julie decided to pursue a career as an artist. Classically trained, Julie's art education was based on the direct observation of color, light and form relationships in nature. She
