Her mother is Elaine Woods and her grandmother is Maringka Baker. Both these women are highly skilled/successful artists as individuals.

Like her mother and grandmother Julie has profound link to country and a spiritual  attachment with the land. These strong bonds to the desert are expressed with beauty and  integrity in her paintings.

Julie paintings portray dreaming which are usually associated with culture and  ceremonial law. –Titled: – Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa.
