I had the joy to just buy my fourth piece of art from Julie this week! I first met Julie and her work on the West Tour several years ago. At that time, she had completed a series of work featuring blue, black and white impressionist pieces. I was immediately drawn to “Blue Bird on a Wire.” It didn’t take much time until it was mine and it hung on my bedroom wall. I could see it as I lay in bed, it was placed to the right of the TV. The left side was lonely so I went back and got “True Blue,” another of the originals from the series. I look at these pieces before I go to sleep and when I wake up and they bring me such joy. Fast forward and I needed a large piece to go over the living room couch. I looked at Julie’s website and found, “Get it Girl.” The colors matched the couch, the paint in a beautiful way. The amazing thing about this piece is it seems to change with the amount of light in the room. Sometimes the pinks burst with color, at other times they are very subdued. On rainy days, it seems to match the clouds outside. Julie’s ability to work with colors and layers of paint is the key to this transformation. Back to my bedroom. My life has taken some challenging changes and I needed to rearrange that space to bring me comfort. Julie’s two art brings me such pleasure and I had hoped that I could find something like them. I know all of the pieces from that series were sold but I found a great compliment, “Casino Royale.” The colors work so well together; the twins have met their new sibling! I appreciate the time she spends with me as a patron of her work. I admire the skill she has and the joy her art brings to my life. Thank you, Julie.

I went with my friend to visit Julie’s open house during Austin studio tours. There we were greeted by Julie and Kalista, who were so so friendly, fun, and welcoming. We were chatting for some time while there. Kalista walked me through the whole gallery, and enthusiastically explained not only the intention behind many of the paintings but also what to look for in interior design and more. All the while my eye kept gravitating to a really beautiful vibrant piece called Strut. I was in the market for a piece but I was a bit nervous bc I’ve never made an art purchase before. The moment I decided to buy it, Kalista and Julie were so enthused and excited, I knew I’d made a good choice! I have a small Camry so the piece didn’t fit in my car, but they scheduled a delivery with me for free! I’m so excited to hang it up in my space. 10/10 quality people and art!

Julie Ahmad is not only an incredible human being but an absolutely talented artist… what a special combination! She is easy-going, passionate, super fun, AND has a heart of gold. You feel VIP with her during your artist/client journey together because she goes above and beyond to make sure the art she creates for you (or that you choose) feels perfect to your core. There really is no putting into words the all-around package you get with your new artwork from her and the artist herself. She is the real deal in every way. Go on and don’t think twice about supporting this local, woman-owned, uber talented, small biz, y’all! I promise you won’t regret it!!! Looooove my masterpiece from her AND love her!!!

I was fortunate to connect with a "friend of a friend" who was the featured female artist at Julie Ahmad's studio. My friend (Donna Schwandt) urged me to go to the studio where her art was displayed for sale. I purchased the painting "Peppermint" by my friend, and was very impressed by Julie Ahmad's large scale abstract pieces. I was drawn to one particular piece called "Spoke too Soon",which I purchased. I am thrilled with my purchases at Julie Ahmad's studio. Julie is dedicated to making sure everyone is thrilled with the art in the studio, and the pieces that you bring home are installed beautifully!

Working with Julie Ahmad, her Art Studio & Gallery was such a pleasure! Our production had the privilege of both interviewing and filming with Julie at this location. Her passion, warmth, and amazing artwork continues to inspire just as much as her beautiful space provides a lovely backdrop for filming setups and interviews. Her professional and personal insight invites us all to discover more within the world of art. Thank you for accommodating our team and allowing us to feature some the beautiful pieces within your artwork collection for our project.

  • Cassie Peretore

I am so grateful to have stumbled into a gallery event during SXSW and found Julie and her incredible art. Not only is she a deeply talented artist, but she is an incredible person. I fell in love with her piece before even realizing that the artist herself was there, and after meeting Julie, I was sold. Her art is powerful, complex, and meaningful. I have her piece “Fearless”, which is part of a stunning feminist art collection. I cannot recommend Julie and her art enough - if you have a chance to meet her and learn about her pieces, take it!

Love this business and the talented owner! We moved last year to our first home, and we were in search of artwork that was one of a kind and meaningful. We came across "Texas Snow Day" and fell in love- the colors, textures, richness- the whole piece is incredible. Julie was so gracious during the entire browsing and buying process; she was very flexible and accommodating, and even personally delivered the piece herself! I highly recommend Julie Ahmad Studio to anyone who is searching for a unique statement piece for their space!

  • Caitlin Rourk

Working with Julie Ahmad on a custom piece was a dream. From guiding me as I conceptualized what I wanted, to helping select the right size for my space, to delivering a beautiful piece, Julie was communicative and collaborative every step of the way. I'll be returning to Julie again for more pieces to fill my home with her beautiful vision and talent, but my loyalty really comes down to her commitment to bringing her clients joy and satisfaction. Thanks, Julie - I love love love my piece so much!

I've had my eye on We See The Light for 2 and a half years! I'm so happy that painting is now mine! Julie is an amazing talented and outgoing artist who is passionate about representing women in the arts. Her gallery assistant, Kalista, is just as passionate and made my buying experience fantastic! If you are ever wanting to purchase art locally in Austin, I highly recommend purchasing art from Julie Ahmad Contemporary Art!

  • Ruth Verver

Julie is such a talented artist and so great to work with. I'm lucky to be in the same city as her and she even takes the time to deliver orders to be directly. So nice and top notch service! I have even rented out her studio for a brainstorming session and found it to be a GREAT spot when you need a creative environment.

Julie had a beautiful show displayed amongst beautiful furniture vignettes at Louis Shanks. I have followed her at her own studio shows, Big Medium tours, and professional design events. When I saw Demo Lovato 1 it was a slam dunk for my granddaughter's 20th and I can't wait to gift it to her!

  • Michelle Martinez

Julie's work is amazing and so happy I was able to have her create a specific abstract piece for my home. Her art studio/gallery is a warm, creative and inviting space which reflects Julie's personality. It gives me joy to be able to support local artists and have original art in my home.

  • Laurel Patterson

Julie is an amazing local artist. I bought a piece from her over a year ago and still love it now! Her prices are completely reasonable and her customer service is next to none. If you've been considering buying a piece of her art - DO IT!

  • Michael Bayer

Austin is lucky to have Julie. Her art has depth and imagination. When I need art for a TV commercial I'm designing, I start my search with her incredible body of work. Her artistic eye and professionalism make my job that much easier.

  • Tim Mooney

Julie did an absolutely amazing job with transforming our house with an extra large canvas for our main living room. We absolutely recommend Julie and her team for any custom art project.

  • Courtney Durando

We LOVE our Calming Waters piece from Julie. She delivered it to our house which made it extra special. She is so talented and you can just feel the love she puts into her art.

  • Tess Covey

I've visited Julie's studio multiple times- I absolutely love her work! I'm hoping to own an original Julie Ahmad piece in my future home. If I could rate her 6 stars, I would!
