I made it to #kidlitartpostcard day!
I'm Julia, I'm a writer and illustrator and public school art teacher! I love friendship stories and funny animals.
Also goats have very strange eyes!

Tiny started out as a joke but then I ended up having fun with it. Maybe I'm in my 80's flashback era?

So no one told me there's a part in writing when you have all the plot figured out and you are just adding little character stuff and it's so fun and rewarding. You're just making little connections that run through the story.

I flew on an airplane for the first time in a decade and to combat my fears I drew this. Inspired by Greta, my bestie's dog who ate the salt water taffy I brought. Whole. With the wrappers.
I really want to go full 80's Boris Vallejo with this one.

In typical art teacher fashion I can't throw away pretty scrap paper. Brayer paper is one of my favorite textures ever!!

I know this is incredibly silly but the lighting and the way this table was constructed made it look like the crumbs were levitating.

How many times in a row is too many times to listen to "I Know the End" by Phoebe Bridgers?

This is the part of making books that isn't so glamorous. Writing, sketching, taking ideas and trusting them enough to put on hours and hours of work. This is why we need to support human writers and artists. We put in the work.

At a certain hour of the day I just need
A cup of tea
A sliced apple
A nibble of cheese
A hunk of bread
And a bit of chocolate.

I found the paper dolls my mom and I made when I was about 5. Mom's is on the left. I love seeing how I tried to copy the way she drew. I remember loving the way she made eyes. My mom is a big reason I am an artist today.
