Born in Detroit in 1965, Julie Fournier's work explores how innovations and events of the last 40 years have impacted our lives, psyches and relationships with one another.
She founded SmilingEyes Studio in 1997, and in 2005 graduated from Wayne State University with a degree in Industrial Design, Cum Laude. Known by many for her oil paintings, she's far from satisfied practicing one discipline; Julie considers herself a multi-media artist.
Neo Realism best describes her style. Referred to as a "news reporter" because she is inspired by often overlooked aspects of daily life, she challenges traditional notions of beauty, social class and human interaction through her work as an artist.
