Illustrator Spotlight: Julie Alex

A selection of work by illustrator Julie Alex. Despite graduating from university as a history teacher, Alex always enjoyed drawing and decided to pursue a career in illustration right after graduation:

“My illustrations are kind of love letters–I draw everything I love, be it nature, music, sports or films. It is important to me to have a connection for what I depict, so even when I draw for clients, I try to find this connection, something that resonates with me.”
