Wearable Art
Hand-Painted T-Shirts
Every shirt is painted freehand by Juliet, start to finish — a one-of-a-kind original, never a print or reproduction.

$40 AUD
Simple single-colour designs start around $40; more detailed multi-colour pieces run up to $60+, plus postage. Final price depends on design complexity and garment size.
Turnaround
By enquiry
Each shirt is hand-painted to order, so timing depends on the current order queue — get in touch for the latest estimate before ordering.
Care
Pre-washed & heat-set
Painted on pre-washed cotton and heat-treated to set the fabric paint. Gentle machine wash recommended for lasting colour.
How to order
Send a DM on Instagram to @dragonjulzart with your design idea, preferred garment and size.
Message the DragonJulzArt Facebook page.
Or find finished pieces in person through Wild Pixie Arts, 6 Busby St, Amamoor — weekends, 9:30am-1pm.
Please include your measurements when ordering, as sizing varies between brands.
One-of-a-kind, not a print
Every shirt, tote and cushion starts as a blank piece of pre-washed cotton and is painted freehand by Juliet — there is no screen, transfer or print involved. Because each piece is painted individually, no two are ever quite the same.
Limited-edition art prints (paper, not fabric) are available separately for most original paintings, each with a letter of authenticity — ask when you enquire.

The Artist
About Juliet
Wildlife artist & community storyteller in the Mary Valley
Juliet Musgrave, known artistically as DragonJulzArt, was born in Sydney and has lived across regional New South Wales and the Sydney suburbs. She moved to South-East Queensland in the 1990s, where she raised her family and pursued a career in horticulture and natural resource management. She now resides in the beautiful Mary Valley, Queensland.
Art has long been a passion for Juliet, evolving through periods of exploration across various mediums including graphite, charcoal, oil pastel, soft pastel, and acrylic. She enjoys creative activities such as weaving with cat's claw and natural fibres, painting wearable art, sign writing, and contributing to small volunteer projects. Through her work, she encourages people of all ages to experience the joy and mindfulness of creating.
In recent years, life events have refocused art as a central form of self-expression. Her work is influenced by Australian and European Realist and Impressionist artists including Fred McCubbin, Tom Roberts, Monet, Van Gogh, Albert Namatjira, and, more recently, Chris Postle and Kerri Dixon.
Juliet creates for enjoyment and mindfulness, aiming to capture the essence and character of her subjects through form, colour, and light. Her art often reflects her love of nature, horizons, rustic relics, and the Australian landscape.
She has completed several small murals that can be viewed at Top Café Kenilworth, with wearable artworks displayed at Wild Pixie in Amamoor on weekends. In 2023, Juliet received Highly Commended in the Novice section of the Mary Valley Art Fest for Bad to the Bone, and Highly Commended again at the Kenilworth ArtsFest 2025 for Big Red.
Many of Juliet's creations can be viewed on Instagram at @dragonjulzart.
