The artistic flame is always present and she likes to paint with acrylic paint, sometimes floral, sometimes abstract or a mixture of both styles. Influenced by different artists via social networks such as: Anna Price and C. Brooke Ring, Julie enjoys painting with strong gestural brushstrokes and original color mixes.

Artistic approach

In the first moments of creating a painting, Julie Melançon instinctively pulls colors from her cart to create an inspiring color palette. Once the color palette is chosen, she picks up her brushes and spatulas and lets herself go to the sound of her favorite music.

Often inspired by flowers and colors, her work frequently features elements of the natural world around us. Using strong brush strokes, she likes to create strong contrasts and original color harmonies. In creating her works, the artist wishes to arouse people's emotions and inspire them in the decoration of their homes.
