Juliana Hilton is another of my favourite Australian artists I thought I'd share with you.. She is in her seventies, a mother of five and a prolific painter and printmaker and currently lives in country Victoria. Her work has a luminosity and sense of purpose that appeals to me greatly.
The first encounter I had with her work was at an exhibition in the 1980's I attended with Sylvia Isaac, a dear and much beloved artist friend of many years. Sylvia thought I would enjoy Juliana and she was right! I love Juliana's use of everyday subject matter and the way she makes me a part of her work with her endearing use of colour and contrast.
I find that her use of bright against dark, flower juxtaposed with vegetable, bowl beside chair, table by piano all speak to my sensibilities. I could happily cohabit with her subject matter and feel fulfilled and content.
Juliana has introduced me to the sweet yellow of the prickly pear fruit in a bowl of endearing blue that I would love to call my own...I am tempted to take out my paints and canvas....but no, I cannot match her way of bringing everyday life to my table. I wish only to bring it to my walls......when I win Lotto perhaps....
Interesting works; wonderful colors. I had not heard of her before.
