Her artwork has been featured on BBC Radio, in Cheshire Life, The West Australian and published in Portraits for NHS Heroes book (Bloomsbury). She works with the cast of GREASE from the original 1978 movie and Koalabair Promotions as their resident artist and recently presented Gino D’Acampo with a portrait.

Background
Juliet was constantly drawing people and faces as a child and was offered a place at art college in 1992, but instead chose the corporate pathway and worked in Human Resources for 25 years. Knowing something had always been missing, at the age of 40 she returned to drawing and taught herself to paint.
In 2021, she took a leap of faith and left her job to pursue her passion and dream to be a full-time artist. Now, happily immersed in color and creativity, she has found her true purpose.
It has literally been a dream come true for Juliet to work with the iconic Grease cast and their agent Koalabair Promotions, who have all been incredibly supportive of her work and warmly welcomed her into their Grease family. Together they have auctioned Juliet's Grease Collection prints to raise funds for the Olivia Newton-John Foundation and Juliet's tribute painting of Olivia Newton-John 'Love and Light' will hang in her Cancer Wellness and Research Centre in Melbourne, a wonderful honour for Juliet.
The iconic T Birds Kelly Ward (Putzie), Michael Tucci (Sonny) , Barry Pearl (Doody) and Juliet with their painting 'Tell Me More' Barry Pearl owns the original painting.
