Bye-Bye, Sony Monitor!
We decided to finally "trade-in" our decade-old 17" Sony CRT for a modern, light-weight, flat-screen monitor.Labels: 2008, Media: Watercolor, Process: From Photo(s), Source Image © AK, Subject: Household Chores, Subject: Narrative, Where: San Francisco (Florida St.)

Still Not a Disco (Final Version)
I adore light. And color. As if that wasn't perfectly clear. And Happy Birthday to my father - he's wherever it is people go when they're no longer here with us. He gave me my first camera, and thus my first tool for capturing ever-changing, fleeting, world-defining light. Thanks, Dad!

Flora and Fauna of Glen Park
This was just a "preview" hike in a city park - now I'm off to the mountains for a couple days - no internet, so I'll post the drawings when I get back mid-week.

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.
