Julie Ross (1956-2021) was an American artist and Ringling School of Art and Design (now Ringling College of Art and Design) alumna from Sarasota, Florida, whose creative life was deeply shaped by early exposure to art and extensive world travel. Born in Tampa and raised in Sarasota, she showed artistic promise through specialized arts education and scholarships that led her to study at Ringling and then complete a Bachelor of Fine Arts at The School of Visual Arts in New York City in 1987. Ross worked in a diverse range of media, including painting in acrylic and oil, mixed media with plaster and resin, and found objects, often exploring subconscious imagery and expressive form, and her art has been exhibited and sold at auction in the U.S. and internationally; her legacy continues to be celebrated through projects and publications that support youth arts programs in Sarasota.
