Painting, New to One of a Kind, Woman-Owned
Julie Duwel Art
Cloud inspired fine art painter
I’m a Colorado-based fine art landscape painter with a lifelong fascination with the sky. I grew up in Indiana, spent 20 years in Atlanta, and moved to Denver in 2018, where I continue to discover new inspiration in Colorado’s expansive skies and beautiful mountain landscapes.
My love of clouds began in childhood, when I would spend hours looking up, finding faces, creatures, and stories in their ever-changing forms. That sense of wonder remains at the heart of my work today. I paint from memories, imagination, and feelings rather than photographs, capturing not a specific place or moment, but the emotion and possibility it evokes.
Through big skies, luminous color, playful clouds, and whimsical elements, I create joyful landscapes that invite viewers to pause, look up, and discover their own stories. For me, clouds are a reminder that the world is full of wonder, that change brings new possibilities, and that beauty can be found in unexpected places.
Ultimately, my paintings are about more than landscapes. They are an invitation to reconnect with the world around us, find moments of joy and healing, and remember that there is always room for hope, imagination, and connection.
