Julie Holmes
Julie is a printmaker, seller and reader of books, lover of birds and avid gardener inhabiting a little patch of forest on Yuin Country on the south coast of NSW.
Her work is grounded in the natural world with a focus on the little things people tend to ignore; birds, insects, understory. She explores this through varying forms of printmaking, predominantly etching and linocut, drawing and artist books.
Julie studied Printmaking and Drawing with Honours at the ANU’s School of Art in Canberra and has exhibited in solo and group shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Fremantle, Adelaide and Queenscliff.
She has been a finalist in the Fremantle Arts Centre Print Award, the Waterhouse Natural History Art Prize, Peebles Print Prize and the Basil Sellers Art Prize.
