- Julie, you have the superb combination of being an outstanding artist, a wonderful teacher and also a delightfully kind and fun person. Ann

- I was very impressed with the way Julie taught watercolour which I have found in the past very difficult and a bit of a mystery. I found your demonstrations very informative. Ainslie
