Biography and Curriculum Vitae Julie Elliot is an artist whose mixed media paintings are an innovative combination of both painting and printmaking. She studied these disciplines at Okanagan College, completing a Diploma of Fine Arts (Honors) in 1989. Over the past 20 years she has developed a process that employs monoprints as a substructure for layers of paint and mixed media. Her work is marked by distinctive textures that have bas reli Julie's ideas are realized in semi-abstract images which often utilize animals, birds and the landscape of the Okanagan Valley. Julie lives and works on an apple orchard in Oyama, B.C. and influences of this agricultural lifestyle are evident in her paintings.
Julie’s reputation has grown steadily since she began exhibiting. Her work has been shown in a variety of juried exhibitions across British Columbia. Solo exhibitions include the Vernon Art Gallery, the Art Gallery of South Okanagan, and the Kelowna Art Gallery (two person show). Her work is included in the permanent public collections of the Governor General of Canada, the Kelowna Art Gallery, UBC Okanagan and the District of Lake Country. _____________________________________________________________________ Curriculum Vitae Education Diploma of Fine Arts (Honors) from Selected studies in BFA Program, OUC, Awards 2005, 2006, 2007 Top Ten People’s Choice, 2004 Top Artists’ Choice, 1989 Helen Pitt Scholarship, 1989 Okanagan College President’s Purchase Award 1988 Public Collections Governor General of District of Lake Country, UBC Okanagan, Solo Exhibitions 2008 Continuum, The Art Ark Gallery, Kelowna, BC 2006 Recent Work, Laughing Moon Gallery, 1996 That Place Called Home, 1992 Recent Paintings, 1991 Pathin Tuit, (two person), 1990 Cycles of Count, Count of Cycles, Okanagan College Gallery, Group Exhibitions 2010 Inaugural Show, Lake Country Art Gallery, Lake Country, BC 2010 Abstract Meets 3D, Lake Country Art Gallery, Lake Country, BC 2007 Ars Longa (Art is Forever), Okanagan Mission, 2005 Moving On, 2004 North Okanagan Juried Exhibition, 2002 to 2007 Art Walk, 1997 Six of Us, Bowan Island Gallery, 1996 Stepping Stones, 1993 Pressure Point, OUC Gallery, Images and Objects X, 1990 Maskrap, Okanagan Artists Alternative Juried Show, 1989 A Fruitful Land, Member Exhibition, Okanagan Artists Alternative Gallery, This Year’s Year End Show, 1988 Images and Objects VI, Neo- Exhibitionism, Professional Experience Consultant for Public Art Committee Member, Visiting artist, Teaching Experience Retreat Leader, Naramata Centre Instructor, Summer Resource leader, Naramata Centre Artist in Residence, Naramata Centre Articles, Reviews, Publications 2010 Art reproduced as poster and in Behold Curriculum, Wood Lake Books 2008 "Metaphors of Meaning - The Art of Julie Elliot" Okanagan Arts, Fall Issue 2008 eVent, artist profile, June 22 2007 “Creating the Unusual” 2007 Cover art and article in Arts and the Spirit 2006, 2007 Art reproduced in Salt of the Earth Calendar 2004, 2006 Art reproduced in The United Church Observer 2006 Art reproduced in Spirituality of Art, Northstone Publication 2005 Cover art for Exchange, Fall Edition 2004 Art reproduced as poster and in Behold Curriculum, Wood Lake Books 2004 Art reproduced in Exchange, Winter Edition 2000 “Allowing Space for the Spirit”, PMC Magazine, Winter Edition 1999 Cover art for book Riding the Rollercoaster, Northstone Publication Professional Organizations British Columbia Art Teacher’s Association
