Expressive Equine Paintings by Julie T. Chapman

Montana-based artist Julie T. Chapman brings the raw energy and beauty of horses to life through her evocative and distinct style, “disrupted realism.”

Julie’s art celebrates the sentience and spirit of animals. Horses, in particular, hold a special place in her heart, and she uses their movement and presence as a bridge to connect viewers to the natural world.

Her paintings capture the essence of the modern American West, where fragmented forms and layers of abstraction meet precise realism. This deliberate incompleteness reflects the chaos and change happening all around us and encourages viewers to think about what’s essential, both in the animals she paints and in ourselves. The process behind her art is deeply emotional and requires equal parts patience, intuition and courage, resulting in works that feel dynamic and full of life.
