"What impressed me is that Art has infused so much within Julie that she became both an international and an inter-civilizational Artist.

Not just moved by unity, but by oneness, her work offers us revelations of the immaterial, of the invisible, the core of things we are used to considering as impalpable or even out of reach. Julie is not just a very highly gifted painter, but an Artist giving the world both her personal and impersonal vision of the Whole. Made of both current Western chromaticism and traditional Far-Eastern calligraphic principles, her Art is a lucid heavenly gate to the Depth that surrounds us all, an invitation to embrace the light and to share it with the world; as Artists give birth to artists.

I also have been impressed by how Julie's Art is important for both Christian and religious Arts, as, again, she builds a bridge in terms of modernity and traditionalism, leading people to experience religion via a more direct, live, nowadays-sensitive way than historical masterpieces can. As both of these artistic expressions complement each other, Julie made me realize that living Artists are Art History in Motion.

Humble assertions fuse Past and Future within the current declaration of the sempiternal Essence, Julie Quinn’s metalanguage, made of Whispers of the Heart and of Ancient Words, is a perfect emanation of what Time and Life both are : wisdom’s perpetual youth.

Harold Rosenberg talked about The Tradition of the New; now, with Julie Quinn, we can talk about The Tradition of The Future."

- Fabien Beuchet (Art Critic, Artist, Teacher)

"Julie Quinn's paintings flow right out of Edenic rivers of Pishon and flows right into the cultural estuary of the cities of art. They speak a visual language that contemporary art reaches for and yet cannot find, a pure source of expression hidden beneath the rubbles of cynicism and shock art. They are phenomenological prayers, given to those whose eyes have been humbled and broken by the 'Ground Zero' realities of our lives.

What makes her works remarkable is in their ability to transcend the barriers of esoteric language of abstraction, into a vernacular or ordinary experiences. They are like good tulip bulbs, hidden deep within a fertile soil, waiting for the warmth, ready to burst into the ground beneath to take root, and then break free toward the spring sun. These paintings are pregnant, about to give birth in our imaginations and in our prayers toward a greater reality waiting for us.

We can only anticipate them, gaze beyond them, and listen to the paintings."

- Makoto Fujimura  (internationally acclaimed artist and author)

"I've followed Julie's work for some time now. It is both artistically inspiring and spiritually uplifting at the same time... and I truly find modern art that can accomplish fully on both fields rare. I don't know if that speaks so much for lack of faith in something higher among our artists these days... or if we just choose to look no higher that our own creativity.

Personally, as an artist, I have never been that bold. Julie somehow, is both bold and beautifully humble before her God, with paintbrush in hand, as she works through every single piece she paints. It shows in such marvelous fashion. In color, in use of light and shadow, in every possible nuance.

Her work has never... in all these years, failed to bring me to a higher plane in my faith... and even more amazing... a higher place to aspire in my own artwork. That in itself... is a miracle indeed. I highly recommend her skills as a teacher, speaker, and even her painting skill for illustrative purposes... if you can talk her into it, that is. She would absolutely inspire one or one hundred artists sitting in for a class... there is no doubt in my mind."

- Patricia Nichols (Novelist, Screenwriter, Experienced Fine Artist)

"Julie's works speak of the fragility of life and yet the profoundness and depth of knowing a very deep God."

- Wanda Bird

"When we first encountered Julie's work in the J. Petter Galleries, it was revelatory.  Each piece offered its own vision, while her entire body of work captured our attention and wouldn't let go.  We are drawn to the complexity of her mixed media technique and captivating calligraphic images.

Julie's remarkable, unique and deeply layered pieces project an interplay of shadow and light, with creatively divine energy emerging from beneath or beyond the piece itself.  Her work is transcendental; its themes of spirituality, creation and divinity can be at once reassuring as well as inscrutable and unsettling.

Each piece is its own epiphany that contrasts Light and Dark, Wonder and Revelation, and the Uncanny verses the Organic.  It is the tension between these elements that elicits the interplay between Human and Divine which is the essence of Julie's work."
