Julian Bloom
’s transparent watercolors have widespread appeal. His
realistic style is the product of his talent in color, composition, and control
of this difficult medium. Julian’s keen observation of detail results in
portraits, still lifes, and landscapes that glow with an inner life. Julian’s
work is held in many collections, both private and public.
He is currently a Watercolor West Board Member at
Large.
