Julia Sorrell (born 4 August 1955, in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex) is a British artist known for her portraits and imaginative drawings and paintings using figures and natural forms such as wood, shells, rock and plants using a range of media from pencil, charcoal, pen & ink, pastel, watercolour and oil.
She lives in Oxfordshire and exhibits in London at the Mall Galleries as a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours.
She studied textiles and embroidery under Constance Howard MBE at Goldsmiths' College (1973–6) who purchased her work to use as examples in talks and publications.
She was taught drawing by Betty Swanwick RA (who was to produce the artwork for albums by rock group Genesis), and she sold her first work at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition at the age of 19.

Her letters describing this experience were borrowed by Michael Ramsey's biographer Owen Chadwick who then passed them on to the library of Lambeth Palace.
In the 1990s she exhibited at the Maas Gallery with the dealer Rupert Maas, and had a series of paintings purchased by the collector Professor Philip Rieff which were then exhibited at the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1996.
