Julian Meagher is a Sydney-based artist who left work as a medical doctor to pursue painting full-time. He is represented by Olsen Irwin Gallery – Sydney, Edwina Corlette Gallery – Brisbane, Ecosse Gallery – Exeter, Cat Street Gallery – Hong Kong and Aratong Gallery in Singapore.
Having trained in traditional oil portraiture in Florence, Italy in his early 20’s, his application of paint somewhat reflects those techniques. He applies multiple thin glazes over many sittings, achieving a unique watercolour-like effect.
