I have had many shows of my paintings and of various other work (including cut paper, embroidery and bread). I illustrate books. I design fabric and make quilts. My work flows in many directions, but all of the ideas and creations are connected. The work I do in one area inspires the work in others. Ideas beget ideas.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFind more of Julie's work\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtists to Watch is an award-winning company working directly with independent artists to craft high-quality products that meld visually intriguing images with thought-provoking words.
