Julie Bernstein Engelmann has lived in Indiana, PA for over 20 years. The Artists Hand Gallery, as well as Pittsburgh's Gallerie Chiz, house her artwork. As a member of the Associated Artists of Pittsburgh, she has won many Best of Show awards and First Place prizes here in Western Pennsylvania. As Julie completes her paintings she says she watches for "the moment when its resonant spiritual space opens up like a hologram and [she] sees something thrilling come to life that [she's] never seen before." Julie wants her artwork to give off a sense of beauty, freedom, presence, warmth, joy, ease, harmony, richness, and surprise.
Julie's work is very abstract and gives off a sense of kinetic movement; her paintings are very busy, but still lead the viewer's eye swirling around the canvas. She works with acrylic and latex which lend themselves to creating texture and saturated colors. Her composition tends to be very circular in nature, while expressing her brushwork very well; the viewer is able to get a feel for the artist in her work.
