Julie Harris

Working from her studio at the historic ICB Building in Sausalito, California, Julie Harris creates with a quiet sense of intuition—where the hand leads and the mind gently follows. Her work spans painting, collage, and ceramics, each piece emerging through an emotionally driven, deeply personal process.

There is a distinct playfulness in Julie’s practice. Forms are not forced into perfection, but rather discovered—organic, asymmetrical, and alive with movement. In her ceramic vessels especially, she explores the subtle poetry of containment: objects made to hold, to gather, to carry. These pieces become quiet reflections of the human experience—of what we keep, what we release, and what we choose to protect.

Her work embraces imperfection as beauty, offering forms that feel both grounded and expressive. Each piece carries an unspoken warmth—designed not only to exist within a space, but to soften it, to bring a sense of ease, and to invite moments of unexpected joy.

Julie’s work lives at the intersection of art and emotion—modern heirlooms that speak gently, yet resonate deeply.
