Julie Sullock

Julie Sullock studied Fine Art at St Martin's School of Art and completed an M.A in Printmaking at Brighton Polytechnic in 1988.

Since leaving Art School Julie has continued to paint and make prints. She combines Etching and Screen to build up layers of colour to create different perspectives within the work. Julie’s work is concerned with colour and mood, she is inspired by nature and much of her work is abstract.

Her recent work includes children's workshops at Chelsea Physic Garden, and at RHS Wisley. As a keen gardener there are references to ferns and leaves in her prints.

Julie was Artist in Residence at the Sprout Gallery during August 2021 that was very successful!

Julie is a member of the Printmakers' Council where more of her prints can be viewed. She has been a Southbank Printmaker member for 21 years, and set up the gallery together with Jenny Ronay, Theresa Pateman and Martin Langford.

Julie was featured in Country Life magazine and James Elwes stated, "The way her colours are soft and blurry mark-making recall some of the greats of Modern British painting; there are nods to John Piper, Howard Hodgkin and Ivon Hitchens in her work which feel rich and comforting. One to watch. There's a joy and zest to her printmaking, which we all need right now”.
