VISUAL ARTIST
JULIE YOUNG

         I am a visual artist currently living in Northern Colorado. I grew up in Indiana, spent some time living in Florida, a few years on the Big Island of Hawaii, and in 2022 moved to Colorado to further my visual art and circus-arts career.  

     While using various mediums, with acrylic paint being my current focus, I create works of art to enlighten the hearts of others and bring health and happiness into my own life. Using bright colors, crisp lines, and whimsical flowing designs I create paintings and sculptures to represent the world around and within us all. My works are inspired by dreams, meditation experiences, folklore, metaphysics, and the world observed from my imaginative perspective.
         My artwork has been displayed in many galleries in the Midwest such as The Harrison Center for the Arts, The Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art, The Primary Colors Gallery, Garfield Park Art Center, The Indy Arts Garden, and many more. Traveling to music festivals such as Resonance Music and Arts Festival, Rootwire Transformational Arts Festival, Good People Good Times, The Werk Out Festival to name a few are also places that have offered me the opportunity to share inspiration to new audiences through my artwork.
    In addition to painting artwork, I also practice face painting, balloon twisting, costume making, sculpting, henna tattoos, caricature portraits, art lessons, and live painting. I deeply enjoy opportunities that allow creativity to flow graciously to kids and adults of all ages. Never limiting my artwork to a specific area or medium, I plan to extend my outreach to others across the globe during my life to inspire others to create, learn, and grow.
