🎨 Artist Spotlight: Julia Deckman

Loud color. Big joy. Serious talent.

There are artists who paint what they see—and then there are artists like Julia Deckman, who paint what they feel. And lucky for us, Julia feels a lot: boldness, curiosity, whimsy, freedom. You can see it in every brushstroke, every unexpected shape, every palette that dares to do something different.

She’s not trying to blend in. And neither are we.

A Creative Force with Coastal Roots

Julia's work draws inspiration from her coastal surroundings, her deep love of color, and a fearless approach to form and movement. She blends abstract expressionism with everyday joy, creating work that resonates with both the curious art lover and the seasoned collector.

Her pieces often feature:

• Bright, saturated color palettes

• Unexpected shapes and organic textures

• A sense of movement, emotion, and curiosity

It’s no wonder her work graces the walls of restaurants, galleries, private homes, and public spaces from the Southeast to the West Coast.

Why We Fell for Her Work

We don’t do beige walls and safe prints at Gavalina. We’re here for art with personality—pieces that stop you mid-scroll and make you say “wait… who made that?”

That’s what Julia does. Her work is:

• Unapologetically colorful (not for the faint of hue)

• Emotionally charged without being heavy

• Modern with soul

• A little coastal, a little boho, a little “I vacation in Marfa but live in Charleston”

Basically, it checks all the boxes for people who live with intention—and decorate like they mean it.
