Julie Hefferman

I found her work at the Mark Moore gallery site. I like how she uses ties to old portraits, like every cribs but in a painting. She has old setting but strange ideas put into her paintings. I like how she plays on fairy-taleish themes, but makes them dark and creepy.

Self portait as self script
oil on canvas       67X 56 in
I like that there are random animal coming out of her dress. This painting makes no sense, there are dead animals coming out of her flower/peacock feather dress. It is sortof grusome, but the delicate detail makes it  soft and takes away your adversion to dead animals.
study for self portait in need of perpetual help
oil on canvas     28x22 inches
This one is also random, it put her with lots of buttons and a fruit skirt, with an amidillo.
