New stuff

I’ve completed a couple of personal pieces recently which are now up on my Society6 shop :)

Fresh n Fruity!

Recently I’ve been so caught up with hand lettering (my Instagram is proof of this) that I feel I’ve neglected my illustration and I wanted to put a stop to it… by mixing them both together. I couldn’t stop lettering all together! Give me a break! So anyway, to add a splash of colour to this dismal winter we’ve all been having in the northern hemisphere things got a little bit fruity!

 

All are available as prints from my online store (just click the images). They’re also available as a variety of lovely gifts…

 

Just click the images! :)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! To celebrate I’ve put a new set of chalky hand-lettered products in my shop to give you some motivation for 2014 :)

Day of the Dead

Recently I’ve had a major hand lettering explosion – I’m slightly addicted (as you can see from my instagram – blog post coming soon) so I decided to mix it in with some illustration and create a little something for Dia de Muertos as I *love* the imagery associated with it :)

I thought the skulls would make an awesome pattern so I decided to throw that in too…

Both are available as prints, etc from my online shop (click the images). I am SUPER pleased with how these turned out. Creating stuff like this makes me so excited and happy!

You may also notice I’ve added a signature to these pieces. After lots and LOTS of experiments I’ve finally settled on a nice looking signature to put on my prints and illustrations (a standard copyright line is far too dry). Here’s a close-up; it is, of course, hand lettered :)

Fun times! I love what I do for a living sometimes (most times) :D

Christmas has come early!

I was looking around some old files recently when I came across the design for my personal Christmas cards from 2011. I still really like this illustration so I decided to add it to my shop as a print, etc. I know it’s only September but it’s nice to have it there ready and waiting!

The Tooth Fairy

I had the idea for this illustration whilst waiting at the dentist a while back. I’m quite pleased with how it’s turned out! I’m feeling much more confident with illustrating people these days, even though I do worry they all look the same…

It’s available to buy as a print from my shop here:

In other news, I have recently completed my first freelance illustration job! Very exciting indeed :D If you or someone you know needs a freelance illustrator, my contact details can be found on my website www.illustrationbyjulia.co.uk

Shopping for Monsters!

I’ve always loved this monster I created a while back so I decided to add him to my shop. What do you think? I particularly like the iphone case :D

 

 

Sugar Skull

Apologies for yet ANOTHER “stuff in my shop” post but I’m slowly going through my old work and making it available to buy, so here we are :)

So, you can now buy some rather nifty products with my sugar skull illustration on them! Not all products are pictured here so you should go to my shop to have a nose around: http://society6.com/IllustrationbyJulia
