Hey #portfolioday! I'm Julie, an Illustrator and Designer from Tiny, ON, Canada 🍁

I make silly lil characters and put them on all sorts of things physical and digital. I've worked in both tech and indie gaming and am open to freelance opportunities.

An enamel pin of a cat riding a pegasus. The cat is holding a sword and has a cape. The pin is surrounded by polyhedral dice and glass bottles with tiny rocks in them.

An illustration of a medieval castle on top of a hill. There are little goblins throughout the piece, and the illustration has a decorative border with vines and flowers.

An illustration of two woodland critters dressed up as wizards. The one on the left is a goat with an orange dress and big bell, and the one on the right is a deer with a green dress and an acorn necktie.

A photo of three cat rpg themed enamel pins. One is a cat shaped potion, one is a dagger, and one is a cat knight in armour.

So it looks like Canada Post is on strike again so I guess I won't be sending it any orders in the foreseeable future 🥲

Since my preorders didn't pan out I wanted to stock a few desk mats in the shop anyways but I need your help choosing which ones! I have a poll over on Patreon where you can vote for your favourites. Even if you can't get one yourself, your vote is still helpful! 🙏

To put it bluntly, this is a fucking disaster. For consumers, for small businesses and artists, for everybody. The US is cutting ourselves off from the rest of the world and for what?? Even if this gets sorted out or walked back, it’s going to cause a major disruption.

Multiple postal services around Europe say they are suspending the shipment of many packages to the United States amid a lack of clarity over new import duties.
