The Unique Style of Julie Beckett

Based in County Kerry, the talented Yorkshire artist Julie Beckett is rapidly making a name for herself as an innovative Impressionist-style painter of flowers and landscapes. Employing a variety of mixed media for a three-dimensional effect, together with a rich oil finish, her flower paintings beautifully capture both the fragility, and strength of petal and leaf, pistil and stamen.

Originally from the North of England, Beckett moved to the Dingle Peninsula in the mid-1990s. Inspired by the local scenery, as well as a fascination for creating different textures, she has since developed her unique 'Irish' style of art which more than does justice to the natural world around her. Her flower works in particular are noted for their 'living' nature, due to the luminous quality of the oils.

More recently Beckett has been exploring mixed media further using hand and machine sewing techniques, along with metal finishes.

Beckett's paintings are represented in a number of private collections in Ireland, England, Holland, Israel and the United States.
