Julie Austin is a mixed-media artist based in the Loire Valley, France. Working with a palette of ochres, clays, and natural pigments, she draws inspiration from the faded tones and storied textures of antique textiles and timeworn folk objects to create paintings that feel both nostalgic and alive.

Through abstracted forms and patterned compositions, her work honors the magic of everyday life and seasonal rhythms, exploring the subtle relationships between people, land, and memory.
