"Birches In Winter Blue" by Julia Purinton. Purinton is a fine artist and muralist who spends her time in both Washington DC and Vermont. Her use of luminescence and vintage romance imagery is indicative to the artists that influenced her: William Turner, John Singer Sargent, and the Brandywine River School Painters. Her media of choice are oils, acrylics, venetian plaster, and glaze; where she creates atmospheric landscapes and cityscapes.
