Julie Ascher

Julie is an abstract artist known for her sculptural work and intricately layered two- and three-dimensional pieces.

Julie's art emanates from an unquenchable curiosity that -- from her childhood in Baltimore to her current chapter in Los Angeles -- caused her to take apart and then reconstruct the objects around her. Her fascination with "seeing what we can't see unless we take it apart" to discover what layers are hidden beneath the surface informed her understanding of space, balance, structure, texture, and the interplay between light, shadow and perspective.

Fire & Oak Arts

An oak tree burned in a wildfire became a significant muse and inspired Fire & Oak Arts. "Its ashen, hard, and twisted branches still cast shadows and hover over the regrown landscape. My tree is beauty in chaos, I look for that” she notes. 

Her art plays on the juxtaposition between textures, layers, light and shadow, deconstructing that which surrounds us to gain insight into what lies at the center.

Julie has exhibited her artwork throughout New York and California, is a member of the Los Angeles Art Association and Associated Artists of the Inland Empire. She has pieces in homes and offices in California, Colorado, Florida, New York, North Carolina, Washington, and Beijing.
