Julie draws on a love of birdlife and the natural world, the rolling green and treed Waikato, and the coastal Coromandel Peninsula where she also spends time.



Alongside texture and colour, there is a stunning depth of layers in Julie's work. At times she represents birdlife or tree shapes as a focus in a painting, while other times the birds are more abstract and become part of the landscape. She constantly finds herself seeking out birds in her garden, listening for their calls, and noticing them wherever she travels. The changing colours of the seasons are also a fascination, and her palette often changes with them.
