Description
Born in 1999, Juliet Schreckinger is a Long Island, NY based artist. Her work is typically created using a stippling technique in pen & ink and graphite, with occasional splashes of color. Juliet’s pieces are inspired by the ocean, nature, and all of the creatures within our world. Since the time she was a child, Juliet has been fascinated by black and white photography, colorless television shows, and film noir movies. Being exposed to the lighting effects and sharp contrasts shown in these photographs and films greatly inspired the type of work that she does today. Juliet’s work is centered around giving a voice to nature and animals, with the goal of showcasing their importance in this world. Through an illustrative take on fine art, she attempts to express a story in each drawing.
Juliet’s work can be found in both private collections and public spaces. She has been commissioned twice by the City of Long Beach, NY to create murals at the boardwalk. She currently has works in galleries in Seattle, Philadelphia, Nucleus in Portland, Grist Gallery in Brooklyn, Modern Eden in San Francisco, and internationally online at WOWXWOW. She has also contributed works to non-profit organizations like PangeaSeed Foundation, with whom she recently collaborated with on a custom shoe together with Blvd Custom.
