Pacific Northwest artist Julie Thompson has been creating her intricate paintings on naturally-molted peacock feathers since 1990. Her first markets were along the cruise ship route in the southeast of Alaska, her home state - in such towns as Ketchikan and Skagway. Since then her style has grown and representation has spread to many galleries, in several states, on both coasts. These unique works of art have found homes in collections across the US and Canada as well as in Germany, Ireland, and Japan.

What's new
Update: Available Works is Online! But still a work in progress. Due to vastly increased website traffic and an enormous number of emails and queries, I am reorganizing the pricing page. The new page, "Available Works", is online though it hasn't a whole lot of content yet. Images of available pieces and their locations are there, but not all of them. they're not yet linked to larger images, but will be. Please keep checking back! I am only able to take a little bit of time here and there to rework this as I am preparing for the Spring season in shows.
All pieces are fully framed, triple-matted with acid-free mats, wire-hung, with UV glass. If you are in need of a commissioned feather without a frame, I'll only do those for active purpse such as smudging and healing. Otherwise, you're much better off to get the framed piece, as it will survive for decades protected behind glass.
New Venue! You can now find my painted feathers at Fusions Art Gallery in Ocean Shores, Washington. Check them out, it's a wonderful, vibrant gallery!
Juried in! I will have a page in "Artists of the West", a coffee table book that will be released May 2008. Click the link for more information and sample pages from this upcoming book. If you visit my blog, linked at the top, you can download and view a PDF of my page in the book.
