"We are so lucky to have Julie Ahmad in Austin. Her curation of female identifying artists is second to none and her passion to raise awareness of women in the art world is palpable upon entering the Gallery. A colorful mix of abstract painting, photography, geometric patterns and everything in between, one will feel immersed in awe and inspiration. Julie, being an artist herself, is an expert in her field and has guided her clients towards the right pieces for them with a gentle and personal touch. This gallery also hosts happy hours and other events. I recommend this gallery for anyone visiting Austin, those specifically wanting to support women in the arts, or if you are simply a person with great taste in art :)"

"This is my favorite art gallery in Austin! Julie and her talented team host great events that make art accessible to collectors of all levels. I was thrilled to meet one of the artists of a piece I purchased at an event, and we even had a dance party to celebrate! Julie continuously finds FUN ways to showcase the female artists they represent. I love that she is so collaborative and dedicated to our community."

"I LOVED working with Julie. We had a vision of what we wanted (a three panel piece that reflected the personality of me and my two girls) and she executed the vision perfectly. She’s professional, easy to work with, and insanely talented. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Julie!"

"The work that Julie Ahmad is doing in the Austin creative community is something that is not only needed but is a must to support. So often creatives, especially women, are needing resources to sustain and enhance their business. Julie goes over and beyond to create this much needed opportunity and she does it with style. Highly recommend checking out on of her events, supporting the artists, and the easiest way to support is like/follow/subscribe on all the platforms!"

"It has been exciting and admirable to watch Julie grow her gallery into a representation of local female artists with the help of the incredible Kalista by her side. I gifted Julie's work to my granddaughter and myself so we both enjoy her creations and the pleasure they bring to our homes. Thank you Julie for the talent you bring with your work, and that special gallery space to enjoy it in along with other female artistry."

"Many art galleries just have nice works of art and are in cool locations. But you go to them once or only if they have a cool exhibit. Julie’s Gallery has community first along with great artwork in a nice location. Whether it’s an exhibition for the artwork that you’re interested in or you’re going to her gallery for an event, you’re guaranteed to find both quality artwork and quality people."

"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!!!"

"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!"

"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!"
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."

"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!"
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!"
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."
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."
