Joolie Green’s formal art training began in Life drawing at the Brett Whiteley Studio and several periods at Art Students League in New York followed by National Art School short courses and Life drawing. During the last decade, she undertook several study and sketching trips to US, Japan and Europe. Highlights were exhibiting in New York with fellow Australians, and a solo show At The Vanishing Point. Due to her interest in children and non-profits, she was invited three times in group shows at Sydney Children’s Hospital and for the last six years in successful auctions by Variety for Children. She has held exhibitions overseas in Japan, Nice and Naples, and in 2013 was awarded Winner of Naples Contemporary Art Prize for Sea Fever. She has happily returned to SE Qld to pursue her painting career in a glorious mountain environment.
