About the Artist

Julie Uhler’s lifelong love of art inspired a personal renaissance of sorts. Throughout her accomplished career in marketing, and while raising her two daughters, she felt continually beckoned by the beauty and intrigue of oil painting. Since she had no previous art training, and in her early 50’s, she sought guidance locally at the North River Arts Society, located on the South Shore of Boston.  She continued her study by enrolling and completing the drawing program at the highly acclaimed Academy of Realist Art in Boston. In the Spring of 2016, she traveled to France for three weeks to study portraiture at the renowned Studio Escalier. She continued her studies in the summer of 2017 by attending the Florence Academy of Art in Florence, Italy, specifically their month long program in Portraiture.

Julie enjoys oil painting landscapes, seascapes, figurative, and still life. She accepts commissions on a limited basis. 

Julie is a member of the Charleston Artist Guild by serving on their Board of Directors as Outreach Director. She was  an exhibiting artist in their gallery located in her hometown of Charleston, SC.  

Julie recently relocated to Plymouth, Massachusetts. She has been accepted for two month long art residencies in the South of France, unfortunately postponed due to COVID. She hopes to be plein air  painting there soon!
