About Me
- Name: Julia Kay
- Location: United States
Artist, Analyst, Aikidoist, Alexander Technique Teacher-Trainee. Artist: I've been living, working and exhibiting in the San Francisco Bay Area for almost 20 years. My subject matter ranges from portraits of people and animals to almost abstract paintings of plant forms and light. I paint in oil, acrylics, & watercolors, with oil paintsticks and watercolor markers, and with digital media such as pressure-sensitive tablet and Studio Artist software. I draw with anything I can get my hands on - sticks on wet sand and fingers on frosted windows, chunks of wood freshly burnt into charcoal and children's toys such as etch-a-sketch and magna-doodle. I also take landscape, figure, animal and street photographs, have played with printmaking (mostly monoprints) and have dabbled with sculpture in steel, wood, clay and neon.

feels medieval. meant seriously, at least a bit.
Well, for all that we have tall buildings, we don't really have alot of internal public space that is this large - and beautiful. So it's bound to recall cathedrals and the like. I mean, this is at the top of a mall, but it's antecedents are buildings like the Pantheon in Rome, Hagia Sophia in Istanbul and the Duomo in Florence. However, of these, only the Parthenon is listed on wikipedia as a world's largest dome.
