Julie Millar
Recent Work 2008

Born in Elgin, Julie was educated at St. Andrew's University before moving to Perth where she quickly established a reputation in the arts community for her stylish batiks and idiosyncratic figure-sculpture. Family life followed (alongside dog-walking, cat-keeping, budgie-admiring and pigeon-fancying) and as the joyful burden of young children eased with time, Duncan of Jordanstone Art College beckoned and Julie graduated with honours in 2000. Her work is influenced by the subjectivity of stories and different ways of seeing. She looks at myth and the human condition, with a view to the resolution of a personal story through art, but there is a lighter side also: on Peter and the joint show she remarks: "The fact he looks like Eric Clapton was never an issue."
