Artist in Residence

Combining the art of making, growing, and learning through the eyes of artist Julia Einstein

Raleigh City Farm will transform into inspiration for the artist, as its growing season becomes aligned with the creative process of Julia Einstein.  The result will be a series of paintings inspired by the flowers she harvests at Raleigh City Farm – a visual expression of what it means to be alive in the garden!  This experience will be shared with the community in educational workshops for all ages to discover the art in this ecosystem, learn how to observe, draw, and explore techniques from a painter of flowers. 

Be social! See the creative process happen in the artist’s studio: #artistRCF

About the Artist

Julia Einstein is thrilled to call the vibrant city of Raleigh home after recently moving here from New England. This artist makes paintings described, “as if walking into a garden room” with an artist’s eye on nature in vivid compositions, elegant arrangements, and painterly surfaces. She is an artist and teacher who works to create a connection for interpreting -- between maker and viewer. Her studio interest is in the painter’s world, the painted surface, color, and representing the inspired view.

She says, “I put onto canvas what I love, the way light enters a space, how color changes from inside to outside. Flowers with an elegance of line, natural rather than cultivated, inspire me to paint from life. My studio is filled with flower portraits gathered, posed and painted. I love that quick capture of a flower's gesture & bouquets with a bit of wildness, arranged for dramatic effect.”
