About the Artist
Julian Askins has been widely exhibited in the last decade and held more than 40 international exhibitions. Innovative and exuberant, his work as a painter and serigrapher captures the heat and light of the Mediterranean, Florida, California and the Caribbean where he paints. His rich colors convey the atmosphere of the places he visits. The heat and light are shown by his complementary use of carefully controlled color temperature and the contrast he achieves by using light and dark pigments juxtaposed.
