Julian Pace, born in 1988 in Seattle, WA, and currently residing in Los Angeles, CA, is an artist whose captivating pop-historical portraits are deeply influenced by his time spent living in Florence for six years, as well as his experiences in New York City. Despite being completely self-taught, Pace's artistic realm is populated by an array of figures from art history, pop culture, sports, as well as more niche individuals and personal acquaintances.

Pace's distinctive visual perspective and remarkable ability to capture the human form make his artwork instantly recognizable. While his subjects may possess imposing shoulders and reputations that may dwarf the viewer, Pace skillfully conveys a sense of nuanced intimacy through their expressions and his thoughtful color choices. Regardless of whether the person he focuses on is a casual acquaintance or an iconic figure, Pace treats each subject with a delicate balance of reverence and familiarity.

Julian Pace's work has gained recognition and has recently been showcased in notable exhibitions at esteemed venues such as Spazio Amanita in New York, Simchowitz in Los Angeles, The Cabin in Los Angeles, and The Pit in Los Angeles. It is worth noting that Pace's artistic journey began in a different field, as he previously worked as a pre-school teacher before pursuing his passion for art.
