"My painting process has evolved into a ‘disrupted realism’ style, where my subjects are fragmented, and the final outcome of each piece is unknown at the start; the journey involves abstraction, drawing, scraping, and re-working — all in a search for “the right amount of not enough."

-- Julie T Chapman

Julie T Chapman’s “disrupted realism” imagery is a contemporary take on the wildlife, horses, and rodeo of the American West. Her paintings respond to her perception of our current, fragmented social, political, and natural environment. She hopes they will engender questions of ourselves and our society.
