Julia Softley

Hi, I'm Julia, I am a passionate artist with a comprehensive background in the business of Apparel. My career in creative direction of 2 decades, lead from my original Fine Art studies to the world of fashion. This pathway was intense and by 2023 took on my physical and mental heath. I have since taken a step to the side with a focus on my own love for aesthetic, colour and textures into a mediative art practice. Watercolour pencil is a unique, fun and forgiving medium and not as recognised in the area of traditional Watercolour. I love to share my passion with others through my self taught techniques and practice. I use WC pencil as a practice to de-stress, disconnect from day to day and enjoy the moment of creating beautiful art.During my classes I not only share my joy for this medium but also check in with each student & can provide therapeutic tools which can assist as a mediative practice.As my practice is becoming more recognised in Perth's art community, I Invite you to switch off from the world and join me for a session whether you are a beginner or experienced artist.
