An executive management professional residing in Los Angeles, California, Julia Cominos serves clients as a strategist and business development consultant. In her former role as the managing director of Joie de Vie, LLC, Julia Cominos ensured the success of a retail fine art partnership between Cirque du Soleil and MGM. In this role, she oversaw the launch of atelier works, sculptural editions, books, exhibition catalogs, serigraphs, and lithographs.Although serigraphs and lithographs are both types of reproduced art, they differ from one another in several ways. Lithographs are produced using oil, wax or fat to create a picture on a base of aluminum or polished limestone. A mixture of Arabic gum and acid is used to treat the stone which causes etching in areas of the stone uncovered by the oil-based image. When the stone is moistened with water, the etched areas retain the water but will repel oil. An oily ink is subsequently applied to the entire surface area which only adheres to the drawing, thus permitting a printed image to be created by transferring the ink to blank paper.Once referred to as screen prints, serigraphs are made using materials such as steel, nylon, and polyester mesh. Similar to making a stencil, the mesh material is pulled tight and portions of it are covered before an ink is applied over the entire surface of the mesh. Ink is used to create a design or print as it only passes through the uncovered parts of the mesh.
Based in Los Angeles, California, Julia Cominos is an experienced strategist and business development consultant who previously held the role of managing director at Joie de Vie, LLC. Julia Cominos enjoys a range of hobbies, including tennis, skiing, running, and equestrian.At equestrian competitions, riders are required to follow the warm-up ring rules to ensure the safety of themselves, their horses, and the horses and riders around them. In the warm-up ring, riders heading towards one another should always pass with the other rider to their left side. When passing horses moving in the same direction, the horse and rider wanting to pass should do so on the side facing the inside of the ring rather than on the rail. Riders should always keep their horses at a safe distance from other horses, especially those who have a red ribbon in their tails which indicates the horse kicks out at other horses. Additionally, riders and horses that are jumping always have the right of way, meaning that others should stay out of the way to avoid a collision.
