JULIE MCENERNY | 'Native Orchid: Cymbidium canaliculatum' | Gift Card

Julie’s career in art and illustration has spanned thirty-five years, after having trained at Julian Ashton Art School in Sydney. In 2009, after turning her practice toward botanical drawing, she commenced the first of five annual residencies and exhibitions with Cairns Botanic Gardens and Tanks Arts Centre. On completion of the fifth residency, a retrospective of the solo exhibitions was toured nationally by the Tanks Arts Centre in partnership with Cairns Botanic Gardens, supported by Australia Council for the Arts.  Julie lives in North Queensland and her current work remains in the botanical realm – ranging from colourful exotics to Australian natives of the Wet Tropics region.

In 2011 Julie was also awarded the Cairns Tourism Product Award for a package incorporating Botanical Drawing Workshops and a range of merchandise featuring the artwork of local flora.
