Julie Pelaez

Julie creates because it gives her the ability to tell a storyteller. Her abstract art conveys the lessons in self-discovery that continue to provide and reinforce the person she wants to become. Through themes of empowerment and rich with hidden symbolism, her art cultivates connection while elevating interiors. Each artwork is so much more than a pretty rectangle on the wall. Julie portrays a personal narrative, an inspiration, a rallying cry. Every collection stems from its own unique concept communicated through different combinations of mediums and materials. The questions her artwork poses require self-reflection on the part of the viewer as we all try to become better versions of ourselves.
