BPP: Who are you? And who you really are?
Julie Luke: Truly at my core I feel that I am compassion, love, freedom, and creation. I am a dreamer of love and growth in all aspects of consciousness and life.

BPP: If you could say something important to others who were listening, what would you tell them?
Julie Luke:To be free, and find peace within, to love and validate them for everything that they are which innately truly is beautiful. I feel the key to true personal happiness waits within ourselves to be discovered and the acceptance of everything we are is important especially to self unision, but also very important to the growth and harmony and success of us all.

BPP: What is your true dream, the one that keeps you up at night and if one day it were to come true you would feel peace and calmness in your heart?
Julie Luke: My Dreams are pure love and compassion for humanity. In my dreams we will unite and see our similarities and differences as beautiful, to release the fear of the old and grow as brothers and sisters evolving towards the new. Working together side by side loving each other, and honoring one another’s core light, which I believe deep down we all yearn to be accepted honored and truly loved for who we are regardless of how “different” we may appear, the similarity of us all is love and that’s what I believe in and dream about, and truly feel we are capable of achieving.

Judie Luke's portrait
Julie Luke: To be honest I feel that there are so many paradigms in my country living side by side, and hard to really summarize it all, but I will try my best to explain my thoughts on what I do see.
Many people I believe are working hard towards that of hope and progression of true freedom, forgoing forward towards unity, acceptance, and change for the better of humanity not just those who live here in North America but many other cultures and countries without invasion or forcing change through striping cultural heritage and creeds and belief systems to fit “a standard”, but many that are scared and live in fear of change and acceptance of diversity, which cling to old ways of separatism, bigotry, greed, war, and coveting tools that can ease the suffering of many in the world not just The united states.
I also see a recalibration of politics, education, medicine and economical structures, ecological technological advances, many will fall to be replaced by new and improved methods that will be beneficial for all instead of a few in many ways, and I do think this will be positive for the world. I wish to see all of us keep striving for new ways to improve the quality of life for each and every one of us globally.

BPP: What was the exact moment that you realized what you wanted to do with your life? How did you feel at this very moment?
Julie Luke: You know I can’t really pinpoint a moment when, I just always knew since a childhood that I wanted to live as I am from my core spirit..to be free, to be true to myself. That is what I wanted to do the most, because I was modeled and shown by life early on that it was not okay to express self completely, to believe freely, and to be open and loving without the backlash of ridicule and social judgments. So art as a youth facilitated that way to be open with life inside and outside me to be truly who i was without boundaries, without the ridicule or harsh judgments of being “different” I knew that art was unfortunately looked as an acceptable way to be weird ha ha.How I felt about it then is..How I feel about it now liberated, and totally in love with the expansion of my wings.
