FINE ART EXHIBITION: ARTIST FEATURE

Our Fine Art Exhibition & Open House is Saturday, November 15th, 2025 from 10 AM to 5 PM. We're hosting 16+ professional artists, specializing in a variety of mediums, styles and themes! Today, we'd like to introduce one of these amazing artists, Julia Gabrielov !

"Story telling is a passion that resonates within everything I do. Whether it is realism, animation, or garment making, I desire to share a fantasy world with my audience. That is why I love painting series."

Julia Gabrielov was born in Kharkov Ukraine in 1986. At the age of 2, her parents immigrated to the United States with her and her grandparents. From a young age it was apparent that Julia had an affinity for art. She would spend hours upon hours drawing with her mom in their tiny Brooklynn apartment. Growing up in Virginia, she loved taking art classes, but creating came naturally. The desire to explore new mediums has taken her career in many different directions. As a model and cosplayer for almost ten years, Julia became enthralled in the fashion and costume industries. She would make clothing for photoshoots, style hair and makeup, and discover beautiful settings to create the perfect image.

In 2010 Julia's passion for storytelling evolved into a profession as a children's book illustrator. Her works include the "Under The Tree" series, the "Franklin Bean" series, and the most recent "Baby From The Moon". In between jobs, Julia would write and illustrate her own short stories. Those stories soon evolved into stand alone images. She knew that whether or not there were words, each image had to tell a story.

By the end of 2013, the dream of becoming a full time artist was turning into a reality. Utilizing social media platforms and joining international art collectives boosted her audience and opened many doors. She began showing in galleries and was recognized in publications all around the world.

In 2020, Julia's work was recognized by the International Festival of the Arts in Walt Disney World. For the past five years, Julia has had the privilege of showing her work to hundreds of thousands of people at the festival.

Julia's style has undergone many transitions, from anime to hyperrealism. Practicing many different genres has influenced her technique, as well as imagination. Working mainly in oil paint and pan pastel, she creates surreal pieces inspired by her love of creation and fantasy. Each muse conveys hopeful messages entrenched in the beauty of the natural world.

FINE ART EXHIBITION: ARTIST FEATURE
Our Fine Art Exhibition & Open House is Saturday, November 15th, 2025 from 10 AM to 5 PM. We're hosting 16+ professional artists, specializing in a variety of mediums, styles and themes! Today, we'd like to introduce one of these amazing artists, Lynn Morgan !

"I have been an artist for many years. I have painted in acrylics, watercolors, pastels and most recently oil and cold wax. Recently, I have begun creating one-of-a-kind designer bags. My bags are made of faux leather, cork, canvas and/or cotton. I create unique styles, colors and combinations of cross-body bags, tote bags, hobo bags, evening bags, pouches and many others. I create custom bags upon request."

For Lynn Morgan, creating art is an integral part of her philosophy of being consciously aware of the world around her. Lynn has been creating art all of her life. Until her retirement from the corporate world, art was one of her hobbies, but it was the only hobby that she never tired of. She knew that when she retired, she would reinvent herself as an artist, and that’s what she did. By attending classes and workshops, she learned techniques that have evolved over the years from realistic renderings to a much more abstract style. Lynn loves to travel the world and is considered quite the adventurer by her friends. Her works are inspired by the sights and sounds of her travels to various parts of the world.

When Lynn first began painting with pastels, she tried portraiture. Although her portraits were well-received, she was drawn to non-objective art, and portraiture is about as far from non-objective art as you can get. She began a period of figurative paintings, studying with Margaret Dyer, and her style evolved into a looser, more abstract one. As her travels increased, Lynn began painting landscapes. She has studied with Miroslav Antic, Terri Ford, Casey Klahn, Aline Ordman, Tony Allain, Jen Evenhus, Melinda Cootsona and Jenny Nelson. Her style continues to move toward more abstraction. The latest in this evolution is the introduction of an exciting collection of abstract, figurative and non-objective works in oil and cold wax.

Lynn is now a full-time artist. She is a signature member of the National Association of Women Artists (NAWA), the Artists Guild of the Boca Raton Museum of Art, the Florida Artists Group (FLAG), Women in the Visual Arts (WITVA) and the Martin Artisans Guild. She is also a juried member of the Pastel Society of America. She exhibits both locally and nationally and has won awards at several exhibits. Lynn is currently represented by GalleryVibe in Naples, Florida.
