Julie Coakley first studied art in London in 1983 and later returned to study at the University for the Creative Arts in Farnham, Surrey where she specialised in glass and obtained a 1^st Class Honours Degree.

Despite losing her sight and most of her hearing due to meningococcal meningitis at the age of 42, she continues to work and develop methods of working that allow her to capitalise on the beauty and versatility of kiln formed glass.

She designs and makes complex patterns that are inspired by her love of travel and once she has methodically made the components, they are layered up and with the aid of an assistant creates highly individual images that are used in both sculptural work as well as architectural pieces.
