Hello, I’m Julie
I love pretty prints and patterns, travelling (especially to London), hot chips, funny and kind people (especially my friends), cool autumn days, cats and dogs (although I don’t have a pet), flowers (as noted by all the floral prints I design), a good drama/thriller movie, great coffee, oh and I love pancakes with maple syrup.
I’ve been active in the design industry for 25 years. For many years I worked in the fast-paced, corporate engineering sector as a graphic designer. In 2016 I leapt at the chance to start my own creative business (goodbye corporate cubicle), and I discovered the world of Surface Pattern Design and Art Licensing.
In 2018 and 2019 I flew to New York to exhibit and show my artlicensing portfolio to top Art Directors and Art Agents.
Since then, I have not looked back.
