Julie Vigneron
Committed Watercolour Artist
Artificial intelligence is transforming our era, much like photography did in its time. Yet hand-painted watercolour retains a singularity, an authenticity, a human breath that cannot be replicated.
You are now beginning a virtual journey through my artistic world. But nothing compares to encountering the artworks in real life – I warmly invite you to discover them at my exhibitions in France or abroad.

Julie Vigneron's Artistic Universe
I present my work as a committed artist for a more harmonious world.
My watercolours, both realistic and poetic, blend classical aesthetics with contemporary messages: the connection between humans and animals, care for all living beings, and sisterhood.
Each of my works can be recognised by these three features:
The medium: traditional watercolour, which I use in rich pigment to convey intention with strength and clarity.
The style: a deliberate realism that anchors my subjects in the real world to awaken the viewer’s awareness.
The subjects: female and animal figures, reflecting a vision of the world that is harmonious, free from fear or guilt, always centred on a soothing and inspiring beauty.
