Julie Green wanted to be a stewardess until age four, but became a painter instead. Green often combines humble materials or techniques with art historical traditions, as in Fashion Plate, a series of paintings on carefully prepared paper plates; or in My New Blue Friends, for which Green airbrushed with egg tempera on panel. Half of each year, usually in winter months, Green works on The Last Supper, an ongoing project about capital punishment in the United States. Green’s related, new body of work, First Meal, was recently featured by Rolling Stone, NPR and Eater.

Awarded a 2017 Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts from The Ford Family Foundation, Green’s many accolades also include a 2017 Career Opportunity Grant and 2016 Fellowship from the Oregon Arts Commission, the 2015 ArtPrize 3-D Juried Award, and 2011 Joan
