Julie Fritz is an abstract landscape artist from Richmond, Virginia. Rooted in a deep appreciation for the land around her, Julie uses a cold wax technique to create works with a strong sense of place. Starting with a quote to ground the piece, Julie shares her process of building 30-plus translucent layers to capture the essence of a place, frequently for commission projects.

With a prior background in event marketing, Julie may have started painting later in life but she has embraced art with the same work ethic and sense of adventure that has characterized all her endeavors. From traveling cross-country by motorcycle to penning two books, Julie generously shares experiences that have fed her spirit and the practices she has embraced to develop relationships in her art career.
