Artist Jules Anslow joins Lady Nin's Art Festival

Meet Jules Anslow, Visual Artist from the Pacific NW

I didn't always live in a century-old house in the Everett neighborhood of Lowell, nestled among the other artists by the bend of the Snohomish River and midnight train whistles. I grew up in Ohio, the baby of five children, feeding on the creativity flowing from my father and his advertising agency. I've drawn, painted, and created all my life, but my daughter's birth in 1991 inspired me to pursue my passion more directly. I work primarily in acrylic on wood I cut out with a jigsaw, to make three-dimensional paintings, portable mural components and furniture, the style of which could be described as neo-Dada-surreal-pop-cartoon . My daughter, also an artist, continues to inspire me.

I was honored in 2007 to participate in Seattle’s “Pigs On Parade” event. I completed two pigs, one sponsored by and located at the Space Needle, the other sponsored by 4Culture and located at the Pike Place Market.
