“Thank you for seeing something in me that I didn’t know was there - and believing that I could paint. More than I believe in myself. I am so blessed to have met you. It was meant to be. I am so appreciative.” TSG 10/ 2024”
“I must say my work has changed dramatically since working with Julianna.” 2023
- Elizabeth Springs
“I am so thankful to have discovered Julianna as working with her is a game changer - what I learned with her in one afternoon I’m still practicing years later. Her insight and experience make her a true coach in teaching the art of creativity and how to unlock the artist’s mind. I have received many compliments on the work I have completed under Julianna’s teaching and I highly encourage anyone who is curious about developing the art of abstract painting to spend an afternoon in one of her online courses.” Meghan Nolan 4.20.20
“Julianna Poldi is the perfect teacher for me in perfect timing. I have been painting for 15 years and actively selling for 7. Last year, I made a leap in my work and now under Julianna’s tutelage I am changing on a foundational level. Her insight and intuitive guidance are right on. I thought I was past art instruction, and boy was I wrong! Julianna has inspired me to completely reframe my painting: to explore small, meditative work, taking the time to immerse myself in the message and manner of painting, to bring in more light with layers of translucence, to build from a foundation that supports that lightness and free flow of energy. Julianna challenges me in a nurturing way that gives me confidence in my ability. She is a born teacher.” Melinda Curley. 7.21.21
Next Level Art Making
Working with a coach is not only an opportunity to refine your artistic skills but also a chance to rediscover yourself. If you are ready to dive deeper into self discovery and improve your art making, this program could be for you. Together we will explore and direct your process so you can move confidently towards authentic self-expression, build a body of work for professional display, or simply find your true passion through self-discovery, and personal growth as an artist.

Julianna Poldi not only helped me evolve as an artist, but adeptly coached me in preparing for a large, solo exhibit. Because covid, I had not shown my work publicly for three years. As a result, I had a substantial inventory and also wanted to showcase new paintings which reflected different directions inspired by Poldi’s teachings. In creating new work for the show, Poldi offered specific, insightful and intuitive feedback that enabled me to exceed what I thought I could accomplish. The exhibit generated sales of eight paintings, half of which were completed under Poldi’s guidance. I highly recommend Poldi as an art coach both for expanding your art ability and also in preparing for a public showing of your work.
