Julia dickinson (b. 1986 in torrance, ca)
Ms. Dickinson uses art as a way to express herself and connect with others. Dickinson is the only studio artist who works primarily in oil paint. She also enjoys various forms of printmaking as a way to narrate her feelings. Dickenson’s work is rich in metaphor and often represents her emotions. ‘‘I get to express my feelings. It’s my way of sharing what’s on the inside.’’ Dickinson draws inspiration for her pieces from novels, anime, and movies.
