Julie is one of our most experienced artists and has won many prizes and awards over the years as well as teaching various art courses with Nambucca U3A.

As a child Julie spent much of her time exploring bushland and beaches. Trained as a graphic artist she worked in Sydney before moving to the Nambucca Valley in 1985.

Her paintings are inspired by her love of nature, wildlife and places she has photographed while bushwalking and camping.

Appropriately, Julie has given her exhibition the title ‘Focus on Nature’.

Julie’s paintings are vibrant with colour. She works mainly in pastel and acrylic but likes playing with mixed media, watercolour and oils.

A morning tea will be held at the Stringer Gallery in the Nambucca Community and Arts Centre from 10am on Wednesday, November 1 to launch Julie’s exhibition. Everyone welcome.
