Julianna Pasadena is an American Neo-Classical Baroque painter. Her work has been directly inspired by Rubens, Caravaggio and Michelangelo. From the Classical, she draws upon the ability to see perfection and portray that idealized beauty in her figures. From the Baroque period, she is inspired by the emotion, drama and essence of light to be found in so many of the works. Integrating these two periods allows her to express her own personal point of view according to Pinterest. I appreciate her techniques and gentle strokes using oil and acrylic paints and varnish techniques going back 500 years. She used layers, blending and painting with color glazes. I like how she placed the highlights in just the right spots to bring out emotion and passion in her paintings.
