The Creative Life and Art

Welcome! My name is Julie Dyer Holmes. I’m glad to meet you and to share my painting story. A bit of a late bloomer here. Here’s more on the creative life I live and the artwork I create.

Julie Dyer Holmes Fine Artist and Painter based in Raleigh NC

Work and Walk

So everyday I get to work, that is, draw and paint. The second thing I do is walk. Wait! Usually, it’s the reverse order. Go outside and take the dog out for a walk.

Something about walking outdoors helps me refresh my point of view.

If you are interested in seeing work as I complete it, consider subscribing to my weekly blog. I promise to add some color and inspiration to your inbox on a weekly basis!
