Julie Dillon combines classic elements of fantasy such as dragons and other fairy tales creatures with the modern art medium of Photoshop. Dillon’s colorful paintings burst with life and imagination and each painting is filled with a vivid portrayal of the artist’s joy in creating these scenes. Many of the creatures and characters that are found in Julie Dillon’s Photoshop paintings can also be found in the pages of fantasy novels and fairy tale books, but many of the subjects are new to the realm of fantasy. In one painting, a tattooed female blacksmith walks a crowd of dog-like dinosaurs and dragons in central park in a perfectly normal manner. Dillon’s talent lies in making the unreal seem possible.<\/p>\n
