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.
