Julie Lansaw Warin's paintings are inspired by the light as it falls on the landscapes of her favorite places and travels. Rolling hills of Virginia, waterways of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, sunsets between clouds during summer solstice, and house and barn structures around the country have been captured then interpreted through her eye. Preferring to use "color as the light," black has never been allowed on this artist's palette!

Trained first as a painter and then an illustrator, she taught classes for 2 decades at the Corcoran School of Art, and now enjoys giving painting lessons in her home studio.
