Hello! I?m Julia. When I was a little girl I watched my mother draw and do art projects for others, and something inside of me told me that drawing was in me too. I spent countless hours practicing on my own, studying the lines of every image, and being inspired by others. I remember looking at my sisters elementary school picture, and imaging what it would take to put all of those lines on paper to draw her. We had art class in elementary once a week, and it was my favorite day of the week. In high-school, the art class was hard to get as an elective and I ended up with one semester of art throughout my whole high-school experience, so anything else I did was at home on my own. I had a desire to get a degree in fine arts for college, but that didn?t pan out either unfortunately. I took a few college classes before I married at 21, but they were calligraphy and tap dancing. A part of art for for sure, and I have a passion for them as well, but I never did get any drawing classes in. Time went on, I had 5 children that I have homeschooled for 9 years, and I am now 41. We have done a lot of art in our homeschooling experience, mostly just our own practicing, but now each of my children show amazing talent of their own and it is so exciting to me. To some it is not important, just random fun and to others, it is their passion. About 4 years ago, I came across an opportunity to do portraits for special needs children. My youngest was born with craniosynostosis, a fusing of the skull sutures during gestation, just like these other special needs children, and it really spoke to my heart. I really wanted that opportunity, but the sad reality came to me when I knew I had not learned all the skills for it yet. I learned things on my own over the years, but I knew I needed more. So I went back to school. Another twist came though. I started the Pathways program at BYU-Idaho, because it would help me save money on tuition when I could attend the university. The only thing is that I?m doing school online, and they do not offer an art program that way. So, instead I felt very led to doing the marriage and family sciences program, which is also a passion for me. I know God led me to the marriage and family program, but my hearts desire for art was still struggling. When I put His desires for me first though, he came through for me with an art class I could attend outside of college. My 12 year old daughter and I have attended for the past year now, and I have felt my skills increase the way I had always hoped for. I now have a painting class that came to me as well, and I am so excited about both. I know I have a lot to learn still, but my portraits are getting better, and I feel like I can start doing them for others and I feel the confidence that I need to hopefully provide something that they can cherish as well. I am excited to be a part of this community.I have already learned so much, and have been inspired so much by those I?ve come in contact with. It is an honor to be in the presence of others who love this calming work as much as I do.
