Description
About artist: Julianne Guinee is an oil painter, figurative and landscape based in Buttevant, County Cork. She graduated from the University of Limerick in 2011 with a Bachelor of Education.
Julianne is particularly drawn to imagery and complexities of the human form and works where possible from life, whether hiring models for her studio or taking to the fields. She works in oils, her work from life informing her practice for her larger pieces completed with the aid of photography. She balances thought provoking paintings of explosive power with gentler nostalgic paintings which celebrate the ordinary miracle, taking you on a journey around many of the different aspects of everyday life. She is known best for her paintings which celebrate the everyday magic of childhood.
Julianne is represented by the Russell Gallery, New Quay, the Kildare Gallery and by Gallery 1608, Co. Antrim. She exhibits throughout Ireland as part of group shows and most recently as part of the 194th RHA annual exhibition.
About artwork: This painting by Julianne Guinee features a young woman seated at a round table, her gaze drifting thoughtfully out of a sunlit window. The room is softly illuminated by the natural light pouring through the window, casting a gentle glow on her face and creating subtle shadows across the tablecloth. She rests her hand near a delicate teacup, which hints at a moment of stillness and reflection. Her black dress, adorned with an intricate white lace collar, contrasts with the warm tones of the wall behind her, adding a sense of both elegance and quiet solitude. The woman's expression and posture convey a sense of longing or contemplation, as if she is lost in thought, perhaps reflecting on the world beyond the window. The detailed rendering of the lace, her skin, and the light gives the scene a rich, textured realism while maintaining a sense of tranquility and introspection.
