ARTIST BIO: Julie (Grovhoug) Coyle is a lifelong artist and someone<br />

dedicated to creativity in all its forms. After graduating from Rio Americano<br />

High School in Sacramento, where she received the Outstanding <strong>Art</strong> Student<br />

award, Julie was offered a scholarship to the San Francisco <strong>Art</strong> Institute.<br />

Although her parents prevented her from using that scholarship, Julie<br />

studied art at Chico State, focusing on figurative work and a variety of studio<br />

practices.<br />

Julie’s first commercial art job was as store artist for one of the original<br />

Tower Records stores in Sacramento. Through studying calligraphy, Julie<br />

went on to design menus, concert posters and flyers in college. Every job<br />

thereafter had a creative element to it, whether it was running the<br />

advertising for a fashion company, managing the art department of a greeting<br />

card business or working as an art publisher.<br />

The consistent aspect of all Julie’s jobs has been one of creativity and<br />

challenge. All of art is a risk and Julie undertakes each new project with<br />

enthusiasm and original thinking.<br />

The culmination of Julie’s artistic career thus far has been JCAA – a vibrant<br />

commercial art studio in Sausalito, CA, where she currently heads a team of 7<br />

artists to create site specific artwork in the hospitality, healthcare and senior<br />

living industries.<br />

ARTIST LOCATION: Bay Area, CA<br />
