Julie Beresford’s Biography
I have always been passionate about creating things that will still be around after I have gone. I consider it an honour and a delight that my work has been bought, in the UK and abroad, has been framed, and now exists - mostly in the houses of people that I have never met, and never will meet.
The majority of my work is based on the female form, and I work from life whenever possible. I am fascinated by the pregnant female belly, and sometimes this is reflected in my work. I often use strong, contrasting colours, and dark or heavy outlines (although not always). I like to crop many of my nudes as I like the sense of anonymity this gives them. Although I mostly paint the figure, sometimes I get the urge to do faces too, usually of people I know well.
My preferred medium is pastel - I love it's expressive qualities - but I have recently been working in watercolour too.
