Born into a family of artists, Julita developed a keen interest in printmaking, receiving a B.A. from UC Santa Barbara, and an M.A. in Printmaking from Cal State University at Fullerton. She focused her attention on a unique and unpredictable process, viscosity printing, hence the acronym after the edition number (e.v.), or “edition variable."
