With a career spanning five decades, Julian’s practice is an ongoing exploration of “the experience of looking.” Trained at Manchester Polytechnic and responsible for coordinating the Pre-Degree Foundation course at Blackburn College in the 1980s, Julian brings a profound, academic rigor to his expressive art.

His signature style is a multi-disciplinary approach to drawing and painting, highlighted by an innovative combination of graphic and photographic media. His work focuses on two key strands: the life model and notions of landscape, both informed by his extensive travels.
