In this tribute to the Laguna Foundation, Julianne has captured the color, shape and texture of the Laguna environs. Her 25+ paintings and pyrography (wood burning) focus on architectural elements: a broken window, part of a tractor against the barn; a bird cut from the same metal used on the roof; the 2019 floodwaters. Julianne and Mike Sooley moved to Santa Rosa upon retirement in 2010, after an extensive search to find the perfect place to live. Julie then began pursuing her passion, art, and in particular, watercolors.
