Sharing the Month of February our Second Featured Artist is Julie Bubar

Julie Bubar has been passionate about art forever. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Southern California, and a Photographic Bachelor of Arts from Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara. With these skills, she spent time working at the Long Beach Museum of Art and Stanford University Medical Center in pathology photography. Other highlights; assisting renown photographer Irving Penn in New York City. 



Returning to La Jolla, CA she photographed and documented the artist Niki de Saint Phalle. Niki sent her to Taravichio, Italy to photograph her Tarot Garden. Her equipment at that time was clunky, Sinar 4x5 Camera, Hasselblad 2 1/4, and Nikon 35MM, film cameras.
 

Julie has moved on to digital media and mixed media paintings. She is ever evolving, and now has followed her dog, “Walle” to Del Mar Dog Beach. Participating in the situations of dogs, sniffing, smiling, running and swimming, spiked her curiosity. Her silent pretty mixed media paintings 8"x10", magazine size, depict these noisy, lively entertaining animals of nature.

Julie is trying to be the art, rather than talk about art. Her art is creamy, playful and amusing. There is always a visual story to be told, a true spirit of an artist. 


An artist’s reception will be hosted oin February 9th, between the hours of 5 – 7:30pm at the Off Track Gallery, located in Encintas, CA at 937 S. Coast Hwy 101, C103. The gallery is open daily from 10-6pm and is staffed entirely by volunteers of the San Diegito Art Guild. Visit the website at www.offtrackgallery.com.
