Honouring My Ancestors: Their Blood Runs Through My Veins
Visual artist Julia MacLaurin describes how researching family history led her to create her artwork Honouring My Ancestors, continuing our series of artist reflections…
Julia is attended the Wimbledon College of Art Foundation course, is a graduate of Canterbury College of Art, Fine Arts, and she lives and works just outside St Andrews. She draws and paints from a place of not knowing. It’s instinctive. She finds inspiration from nature, especially trees and the earth.

She likes working collaboratively and realises the amazing possibilities when tapping into group energy with like minded artists. She has been part of and exhibited with the Transept group since 2019.
