JULIE'S BIOGRAPHY
JULIE COHN became intrigued with drawing and painting when
she was nine years old. Swept up into the world of her artistic
mother, she painted with her in different studios. After attaining
two art degrees, a BA at U.C. Berkeley (Art History Minor),
and a BFA at the College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, Julie
knew that she wanted to pursue watercolor painting, a very
challenging and thrilling art medium.
Julie has entered her paintings in numerous group shows and
has had many one-woman shows. Her art demonstrations and lectures
are enjoyed by many art groups in the Bay Area. One of her
recent projects includes people with disabilities whose writings
accompany her watercolor paintings. The group show is entitled,
“Athletes of the Spirit, An exploration of Disability
Through Art and Writing.” To view the exhibit on line,
go to www.vsarts.org
and click on “showcase” and then “exhibits”.
You will then see “Athletes of the Spirit”. Also
an instructor at the College of Marin, Julie teaches three
areas of watercolor: Portraits and Figures, Reflective Objects
and Surfaces, and Design for Painters. She teaches in her
Berkeley art studio as well. Some of her favorite artists
are: Jean Chardin, Jan Vermeer, Milton Avery, Edgar Degas,
John Singer Sargeant, Paul Cezanne, and Richard Diebenkorn
(the list goes on and on). Julie also sings jazz in the Bay
Area. |
