ARTIST PROFILE
A lifelong artist and longtime North Carolinian, Julia Lawing synchronizes color, texture and brushstroke to capture the essence of a moment and evoke emotion. She began oil painting in 2014 and with that, she felt she had found her calling. Her paintings are most often impressionistic, gestural and life-giving, and have been called “extravagantly beautiful, spiritual and inspiring.” Julia’s work has been exhibited throughout North Carolina, is found in collections across the U.S., and is currently part of Charlotte’s cityscape through ArtPop Street Gallery (artpopstreetgallery.com) and the Kings Drive window displays at Metropolitan in uptown Charlotte.
