Empathy Revealed
Explore the serene blend of reality and imagination in Julia Kkos' heartfelt paintings.
I work intuitively, layering color and texture to evoke mood and narrative. Each piece begins with a sense of atmosphere or a fleeting emotion.
My goal is to create paintings that resonate quietly but deeply—works that invite viewers to find their own stories within them.
The works has been included in three curated exhibitions and is featured on artentrepreneur.com.
This piece, "Wonder," invites viewers into a whimsical world where the lines between reality and imagination beautifully blur. The central character, a wide-eyed puffer fish, gazes intently at a sleek Porsche, its headlights cutting through the shimmering water. This captivating scene prompts the question: Is the fish dreaming of a world beyond its aquatic home, or is someone in a meditative state envisioning this fantastical encounter?
"Wonder" is a unique blend of fantasy and reality, woven into a playful narrative that appeals to both adults and children. The vibrant colors and dreamy atmosphere create an immersive experience, encouraging viewers to explore their own imaginations.
