Julie commenced painting in 1992 in Canberra. While studying the Art of the Modern Print during her Graduate diploma in Art History and Curatorship at ANU, she became intrigued with printmaking.
On moving to Sydney, she commenced printmaking classes at Hazelhurst Gallery & Art Centre. She later joined the Southern Printmakers Association and exhibits regularly.
In 2019, her exhibition Bridging time and Place, held at the Hurstville Museum and Gallery, was inspired by Tang pottery lost in a shipwreck in 830 and retrieved from the Java Sea in 1998.
