“Beautiful Hysteria”
Original Art by Julia Lundman
“Beautiful Hysteria”, 8″ x 12″, acrylic, gouache and colored pencil on Stonehenge cream paper.
The term, “beautiful hysteria” is used to describe female rage that is “too much”, or “unhinged” as a way of delegitimatizing feminine anger. It seems that myth of Medusa herself embodies this very idea as she has endured as a “monster” for the trauma imposed on her. I think she was absolutely justified.
Sprayed with a UV protector and matte varnish. Mounted on black foam core for shipping.

About the Artist
Julia Lundman
Julia Lundman graduated from the American Academy of Art in Chicago in 1993. Since then, she has worked in animation and games as a commercial artist, first in traditional animation as a background painter, and later as a illustrator for games and books. She has recently taken some time to devote toward development of her personal work, inspired by Victorian fairy painters, the pre-Raphaelites, Brian Froud, Alan Lee, Medieval art, folklore, novels, and the natural world.
Her process starts with sketchbook practice in the early morning hours. If a sketch feels interesting, she develops it into a series of more finished drawings. If the subject still resonates, she paints the image either in oil, acrylic or watercolor.
