Spotlight on the Arts: Jullian Keeney
“Spotlight on the Arts” by The Paradise Center honors and encourages students in the arts by highlighting their talent and acknowledging the support they receive through their schools and teachers.
Jullian Keeney, a 16-year-old sophomore at Plains High School, has been making art all her life. Her parents describe her drawing at such a young age that she does not even recall it. She was fascinated with drawing birds, horses, and cats. She says she would draw and scribble on almost anything she could find, including the walls of her house. Keeney’s mother was an early influence on her artistic talents, so drawing on anything and everything was just part of developing her talent.
As with many student artists, Keeney has worked in many mediums. She recognizes, however, there are many more for her to try. Her favorite is graphite pencil, especially mechanical pencils because their very fine points enable her to capture a variety of details. Her second favorites are regular pencil and pens, with watercolor painting ranking third.
